    About this audiobook

    In the future, humans live in citylike spaceships orbiting far above Earth's toxic atmosphere. No one knows when, or even if, the long-abandoned planet will be habitable again. But faced with dwindling resources and a growing populace, government leaders know they must reclaim their homeland...before it's too late.

    Now, one hundred juvenile delinquents are being sent on a high-stakes mission to recolonize Earth. After a brutal crash landing, the teens arrive on a savagely beautiful planet they've only seen from space. Confronting the dangers of this rugged new world, they struggle to form a tentative community. But they're haunted by their past and uncertain about the future. To survive, they must learn to trust – and even love – again.

    A Hachette Audio production.

    Editor's Note

    Complex & sweet…

    Complex ethical questions, sweet teen romances, and tense life-or-death suspense make “The 100” an addicting read. Fans of the TV adaptation will find plenty of differences here to provide a new dystopian perspective.

      The emotions the readers put in to the story was amazing

      I AN SO SPEECHLESS AFTER LISTENING TO THE BOOK ONG!!!!!
    • 1/5
      I think maybe I would have liked this book as a teenager, but as an adult the teen romance is just too much for me. It spoiled what could have been a decently interesting plot. The "love" between characters seems obsessive and toxic. I really didn't enjoy this book at all.
    • 2/5
      Predictible, characters whose actions are overreacted compare to their reasons for them. Predictable and cheese. Seems to be out of time. Specially, some of the cliche YA teen love.
    • 5/5
      A little disappointed how it didn’t follow the show well, but the book was far more detailed. Enjoyed the juxtaposition of being on ship and Earth Simultaneously.

      4.25 ★ Audiobook⎮ I'll tell you upfront that I have seen all episodes of The 100 television series. Like many others, the show is what inspired me to listen to the book. After reading about the difficult experiences others in my same situation (having already seen the show) had with the book, I was hesitant about beginning it. I was worried that the book would not live up to the very high bar set by the television show, as others have indicated. Luckily, my experience greatly differed from most other reviewers and I was easily able to enjoy The 100 book as something adjacent to the TV show.

      The word adjacent was key to my listening experience and how I saw the book in relation to the show. There were similarities and differences. The similarities offered interesting insight that the TV show wasn't able or chose not to include. It was just similar enough for the television show to provide a useful frame-of-reference (I already understood the premise). I feel like the television adaptation borrowed the outside structure of the story (and a handful of key characters) and changed some of the inner workings (backstories and character development).

      I didn't have as big of a problem with the book/show differences as I thought I would. The main three characters Clarke, Bellamy, and Octavia were mostly unchanged which added stability to my overall experience. Octavia showed the most personality differences which caused her to fall from favor with me in the book. Even so, I like the added flaws because I feel that they give her more room for character growth in The 100 book series. Listening to this also helped to fill the Bellamy Blake-sized hole in my life that has been there since The 100's latest season finale. One of the best things about listening to this was being able to call up mental images of the television actors. I think fans of the show could really enjoy this book if they keep open minds and trying to avoid making constant comparisons. Yes, there are differences between the show and the book, but I quite enjoyed them both and plan to continue on with the series.

      By far, the main difference between the two versions is the presence/absence of certain characters. The television show chose to kill off some characters that survive in the book (Wells) and bring others back to life (Dr. Griffin). Other characters, like Raven, Finn, John Murphy, and Kane were created by the show entirely. The book introduces a girl named Glass and her love interest Luke, although neither of them appear in the show. I hardly minded the swapping of characters and I rather enjoyed hearing about Glass and Luke. Glass' POV was probably my favorite because her story was completely new to me. Having already seen the TV show made Glass' chapters seem more like a "spinoff", which I greatly appreciated.

      I think differences like that could be major drawing points to fans of the show because they add an air of mystery and unpredictability to the book. The book is just different enough from the show to give it its own appeal, without being completely out in left field. The bottom line is don't expect it to be exactly like the show, but also don't expect to be blown away by any major differences. Thinking of it sort of as a companion to the show is what really enabled me to get the most out of the story. Of course, all of this could be taken as reverse advice for someone planning to experience The The 100 book before The 100 show, so it works both ways. Remember: It's like they say about eyebrows, "They're meant to be sisters, not twins".

      The story was hard to follow. As a fan of the TV show I had high hopes but the result was unfortunate.
    • 5/5
      Interesting book. This author did his best and it is very thought provoking. He does voice his own speculations and misgivings and why he decided on the selections, whether we agree or not with it all it is fascinating.
    • 3/5
      I had a few problems with this fellow's picks for Most Influential Persons in History. For one thing, three of the hundred were American presidents! That seems a little slanted! Also, the author openly states that he has only chosen one writer and one artist because writers and artists---get this---don't influence anyone except other writers and artists! It was fun just to see who he picked, to think who I'd pick, and to ask my family who they would pick. I didn't count this book in my total for the year as I only browsed through much of it.
