Well, I was actually surprised by this series. Eagle Eyes was so much better than the previous Julie C. Gilbert series that I listened to. Maybe the suspense was better or maybe it was just the high tech that, though disturbingly invasive, reminded me of a modern day version of the old 1980s Knight Rider, but I truly enjoyed this one! I was also a big fan of the fact that the suspense and technology are front and center, no romance. | This Book received a 4 Bark rating. |
This was a really great start to the three book series. I found the scenes in the tunnels under Las Vegas to be particularly interesting. This story also brings awareness to a serious but little written about problem, human trafficking right here in the USA.
Rescue In Reno:
Megan's friends just can't seem to catch a good break in this second book in the series! This book also shows even more of the crazy and invasive stuff that Eagle Eyes can do, including turning up the heat in a room and keeping the user asleep while it updates.
Danger In Dallas:
What could go wrong when you have an assassin as a friend? Well, if you are Megan Luchek, pretty much everything. This final book in the series ramps up the danger even as it answers many questions about Eagle Eyes and the Shadow Council, and some of the answers are rather surprising.
Audiobook:
I listened to the 3-in-1 audiobook so I really got to enjoy these stories back-to-back without waiting for a new release. The narrator is a new one to me but she did a great job capturing my attention and immersing me in the story. The sound quality was good and nothing marred the listening experience. If you enjoy clean read suspense with lots of fancy technology I would definitely recommend the Eagle Eyes series from Julie C. Gilbert.
