The Eden Pruitt #4

by K.E. Ganshert

“An incredible story about family & survival that keeps you on your toes in this near future dystopian world” - Joshua Del Toro at Joshuas_Space

A VILLAIN DISGUISED AS THE HERO …

America is in peril. The public is being deceived. The enemy grows more powerful by the day. And Eden’s plans horrendously backfired.

Now she’s locked up with a hostile soldier whose upbringing couldn’t be more different from her own. And whose loyalty could change everything. She sets out to win his trust, prove herself to the Resistance, and somehow, make amends with Cassian. If there’s any hope of vanquishing the adversary, they must set aside their grievances and come together as one.

Join Eden and her crew as they fight to save the world in this final, sensational installment of The Eden Pruitt Series, where allegiances are tested, sacrifices are necessary, and the action never stops.

Wow. New favorite book series!!

[Ashley]

What a fantastic conclusion to this series! I was both excited and a little nervous to dive into this book. Excited because I was eager to see what would happen to these characters I’ve come to love. I was nervous for the exact same reason. Would they be able to defeat the bad guy and save the country? And how were they going to accomplish that? I was stressed from beginning to end because there were times when things looked impossible. Hopeless, even.

There was a sense of urgency and foreboding throughout the whole book, and my anxiety seemed to grow with each page I read. This was action-packed, exciting, and thought-provoking. I know it’ll stay with me for a long time. If you’re a fan of thrilling, eye-opening dystopias, you’ll love this series. I highly recommend it!

Definitely in my top ten favorite books! It was so full of emotion, and action, and plot twists! Im devistated that to finished the series, it was pretty good.

[Christina Kosatka]

This is a fast-paced thriller of a series with a lot of plot twists. Book one introduces us to Eden Pruitt, who has about to turn eighteen as has just moved from California to Iowa to start her senior year. But on her first day at her new school a bunch of weird things happen, culminating in the disappearance of her parents and her discovery that she has (sort-of) super powers. Plus she's met a hot boy named Cassian, who could be a helpful friend or a dangerous enemy...

I don't want to give away too much because things change throughout the books, and almost everything after the first few chapters of book one would be a spoiler. This is a good series from an author I had never heard of.

Oh my God. I am emotionally destroyed. I have cried so hard. The obvious romantic plot in this series is not the one that stole my heart. It was the quiet one, the one I thought was safe that crept in and devastated me. The most devastating act of sacrifice was penned in this book and I am heartbroken. But simultaneously my heart is won.

A poignant end to a wonderful, sometimes tedious but no less beautiful narrative. I literally threw my phone (read via Kindle app) when I realized what was about to happen. I fell in love with these characters, especially the ones on the fringe who weaseled their way into my heart. Dear Lord, how will I recover?

[Tamara]

The Retributions of Eden Pruitt is nail-biting and non-stop action from the very beginning. I do recommend reading this series in order because otherwise you will be confused by the number of characters and the plotline.

I liked this concluding book in the series but I will admit that sometimes some of the plot was confusing as some of the elements weren't completely clear to me, but it was enough that I continued because of mainly the strong characters and I wanted to see how it ended. This would make a great movie.

Worth the read

I would have said it wasn't possible to write a near-future dystopia that actually upended current politics, but this writer seems to have managed it. It was hard to see where it was going, due to the bad guy being a pretty obvious version of Elon Musk. Perhaps this was written before Musk became a politically polarizing figure.

Anyway, this was an interesting story, at least as good as her Gifting series. Worth the read.

[Laura Zamora Montoya]

And finally here is the end! Oh my what a ride! it is certainly a great ending, although I would have loved more about the Forresters and the electus in the epilogue. Anyway, the books was great! everything explained, everything resolved. It was a great reading and I cried, really cried.... I loved this series, just as much as The Gifting, if you haven't read it I strongly recommend it.

[Katie Garrison]

I loved this series! From beginning to end and I couldn’t put it down. It was nonstop action and twists and turns and now I’m so sad it’s over. I loved all of the people and was so invested in their situations. I cried at the end! 😭 Definitely recommend this series—actually I recommend everything by Katie Ganshert!

[Jessica]

A phenomenal ending!

Eden, Cassian, Cleo and the Resistance are working hard to save as many as possible. This book keeps moving along so I did not want to stop reading.

I'm a bit sad to reach the end which was hard but well done, and surprising. I don't think anyone will see it coming. :) So, read all the books!

[Mary Thompson]

Once you begin the first book, you cannot stop reading thus series

Following Eden's story over the 4 book series, was an adventure I could not resist. A future so possibly real, it will worry you and have your heart racing . You will love this series of Books about Eden, Cassian, and all of the other vivid characters.

[Elizabeth Cantrell]

Such a great ending to this series. It was hard to put down!

[Stephanie]

I wanted more in the way of an epilogue, and I cried like a baby when a certain character died, but regardless, this was a satisfying conclusion to the series.

[TheModestMillennial]

A solid ending to a great series

[Marc Benny]

Fantastic series. The writing is really enjoyable. It flows smoothly and I was constantly engaged. I picked up the first book from bookbarbarian and was hooked from very early into the series.

[Diana]

Very exciting end to the series! Can't wait to see what K.E. Ganshert writes next.

[Nicki]

This series was unique and enjoyable. It had nothing titillating or gory but it had adventure,romance and heroism. I liked it

This was a good ending to the series. There were a lot of moving pieces and loose threads, and the author did a good job bringing everything together.
