Bringing together Oryx and Crake and The Year of the Flood, this thrilling conclusion to Margaret Atwood's speculative fiction trilogy points toward the ultimate endurance of community, and love.

Months after the Waterless Flood pandemic has wiped out most of humanity, Toby and Ren have rescued their friend Amanda from the vicious Painballers. They return to the MaddAddamite cob house, newly fortified against man and giant pigoon alike. Accompanying them are the Crakers, the gentle, quasi-human species engineered by the brilliant but deceased Crake. Their reluctant prophet, Snowman-the-Jimmy, is recovering from a debilitating fever, so it's left to Toby to preach the Craker theology, with Crake as Creator. She must also deal with cultural misunderstandings, terrible coffee, and her jealousy over her lover, Zeb.

Zeb has been searching for Adam One, founder of the God's Gardeners, the pacifist green religion from which Zeb broke years ago to lead the MaddAddamites in active resistance against the destructive CorpSeCorps. But now, under threat of a Painballer attack, the MaddAddamites must fight back with the aid of their newfound allies, some of whom have four trotters. At the center of MaddAddam is the story of Zeb's dark and twisted past, which contains a lost brother, a hidden murder, a bear, and a bizarre act of revenge.

Combining adventure, humor, romance, superb storytelling, and an imagination at once dazzlingly inventive and grounded in a recognizable world, MaddAddam is vintage Margaret Atwood - a moving and dramatic conclusion to her internationally celebrated dystopian trilogy.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"The final entry in Atwood’s brilliant MaddAddam trilogy roils with spectacular and furious satire.... Her vision is as affirming as it is cautionary, and the conclusion of this remarkable trilogy leaves us not with a sense of despair at mankind’s failings but with a sense of awe at humanity’s barely explored potential to evolve." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Ten years after Oryx & Crake rocked readers the world over, Atwood brings her cunning, impish, and bracing speculative trilogy - following The Year of the Flood - to a gritty, stirring, and resonant conclusion.... Atwood is ascendant, from her resilient characters to the feverishly suspenseful plot involving battles, spying, cyberhacking, murder, and sexual tension.... The coruscating finale in an ingenious, cautionary trilogy of hubris, fortitude, wisdom, love, and life’s grand obstinacy." ( Booklist)

Multiple narrators adds variety to story

The changing narration was a plus, however some of the voices sounded rather dull, monotone- which was hard to listen to.

quite amazing story telling, hard to stop.

Didn't realise this was the last book in a trilogy upon purchase, but still enjoyed immensely. Took a little while to get into it as it is a little challenging to understand the context, but fascinating how the story unfolds, with flashbacks to the past as well as the present. Will definitely read the others! Well performed by the readers.

Supberbly written and performed

Masterful writing: entertaining, interesting, suspenseful, made me laugh outloud at times. The narration was also great, loved the voices, the cadence. Highly recommend this and the preceding 2 books in the series.

Insightful and thought provoking

Insightful and thought provoking, I didn't want the story to end. A dazzling conclusion to the trilogy that is as humorous and heartwarming as it is tragic.

So good, I listened twice

Well written, and well read. I listened to the whole series. and then immediately listened again, and the second time was even better because I understood more of the first book after reading the last, if that makes sense. I've loved Margaret Atwood since The Handmaid's Tale, and The Testaments - she did not disappoint me with this series.

Great final chapter to a great series

The final Chapter in the trilogy was well worth the wait. The sections regarding Zebulon’s past were particularly interesting watching all the connections come together.

Brought me to tears

The performance was incredible, but especially the ending which brought me to tears. I've never felt so emotionally involved in an audio book before and have been glued to it for days. Margaret Atwood is brilliant and the readers really brought the story to life. Hearing all the voices, you develop a relationship with the characters. Simply amazing.

One of my top three audiobooks!

I had already read this excellent Margaret Atwood novel — the physical book — but this is extraordinarily enjoyable! The narrators are perfect for the book, reflecting the authentic nature of the characters. I have listened to this book many, many times. Returning to it enables me to spend time with the characters I like so much — especially Toby, Zeb and Adam. Margaret Atwood is brilliant!!
