About this listen

Rich in suspense and brimming with adventure, the New York Times best-selling Underland Chronicles unfold the fate of the Underland and the great warrior, Gregor. Suzanne Collins is also the author of the best-selling Hunger Games trilogy.

Praise for Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods:

Kirkus Reviews Editor’s Choice, 2003.

NY Public Library 100 titles for reading and sharing.

“Gregor’s luminous, supremely absorbing quest takes place in a strange underground land of giant cockroaches, rideable bats, and violet-eyed humans.... Creature depictions are soulful and the plot is riveting.... Wonderful.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Collins does a grand job of world-building, with a fine economy of words.... Unlike Gregor, who cannot wait to leave, readers will likely find [the Underland] to be a fantastically engaging place.” (Publishers Weekly)

“[An] exceptional debut novel, a well-written, fast-moving, action-packed fantasy...sure to be a solid hit with young fantasy fans.” (Booklist)

Book two left off with Gregor reading the Prophecy of Blood: a prophecy that calls for Gregor and Boots to return to the Underland to help ward off a deadly plague. But this time, Gregor's mother refuses to let him return to the Underland...until the rat Ripred assures the family that Gregor and Boots are just needed for a short meeting, which the crawlers will attend only if their "princess" Boots is present. Gregor's mom finally relents, but on the condition that she go with them.

The Underland plague is spreading, and when one of Gregor’s family is stricken, he begins to understand his role in the Prophecy of Blood and must summon all his power to end the biological warfare that threatens the warmblooded creatures of the Underland. Fans of Suzanne Collins’ acclaimed fantasy series will find more suspense and action than ever in this thrilling third saga.

Another brilliant instalment!

This book is just as gripping as the other two in the series! The characters are explored in a little more depth and it was nice to get to know Gregor's mum a bit better. It was hard not to listen and I finished it within about a week. Highly recommend!

Life gets in the way sometimes everywhere

I love the whole series but it’s not just the story line, it’s how it carries you away into another world, but they have problems too. In listening or reading them you can see how it relates to your life. Okay not exactly but it does show you how others can find a way to cope with each other…even those they would not have even talked to. By the end of this book things seem at their worst, but don’t let that stop you. Life has a way of dealing you different things to cope with. It’s a journey.
