First Thought when Finished: Silencing Eve wasn't my favorite in the trilogy but it tied up things in a very good way!
Overall Thoughts: Not really a review since I can't do it without giving stuff away and I refuse!
I admit that my problem with Silencing Eve was too much Jane. She is my least favorite character in the series. I don't know why I can't connect with her but we just aren't a reader/character match. I did enjoy everyone else including Margaret, Caleb, and Trevor who were all part of Jane's story. I am a big fan of Kendra, so I am hoping in the future that we see Margaret and Kendra working together. They are exact opposites but that makes the dynamic interesting. Joe, Katherine, and the rest of Eve's crew (I am being purposely vague here) were great too. I am not sure if we will get more of them in the future but I hope so. Characters are the reason that I really love this series.
Audio Thoughts:
Elisabeth is these characters to me! As the series has gone on, I have come to hear her narration in my head even if I pick up the print copy. She does an excellent job and her nuances are perfect for this role!
Final Thoughts: Overall this is probably my favorite trilogy to date in the Eve Duncan series. Very strong overall arc that had a satisfying ending.
