A stunning finale to the epic series, tying up loose ends and creating beautiful beginnings.
The launch date for Untamed has just been moved up from Jan 2016 to Dec 2015. So you can put it on your wish list for Santa! :)
I think Untamed was one of my most anticipated novellas, like ever… Morpheus is such a freaking dreamboat and his relationship with Alyssa is everything, my obsession with them throughout the Splintered series only grew and grew. For those of you who don’t know, Untamed is actually split into 3 short stories: The Boy in the Web, The Moth in the Mirror and Six Impossible Things. The Boy in the Web: This was about Alyssa’s mother Alison; it focused on her past before she was a wife and a mother. W...
Star Rating: —> 5 Stars[After my re-read (12/18/2020): I'm bumping this up from 4 stars to 5! Reading this a second time, I fell even harder for this, and I was so happy to find that the sharp, nagging pain I felt the first time around, like something was MISSING, had completely faded, and that I was left with just... contentment! I, of course, still need me some mo' of A.G. Howard's vivid, incredible envisioning of Wonderland, but I think after 5 years, the painful, ravenous NEED for more turne...
"Your eyes were the color of freedom. Of my future. They were full of so much sorrow, so much determination. And strength... Waking in your bed was like waking from a ten-year coma and seeing an angel...Because just looking at you, with or without wings, I was reborn." You want to know what Untamed is? I'll tell you what Untamed is. It is a neverending clusterfuck of men telling their female partners they are lovely and special and made of unicorn hoof shavings. Of course women should be made t
A.G. Howard did a great job of refurbishing Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland for a new generation in the Splintered series. She made as much sense of the universe as anyone could, but avoided imposing artificial order on it. It was dark and weird and gothic, but maintained its whimsical spirit and illogical rules. The series didn’t spend nearly as much time on the world as it could/should have, being overly preoccupied with a certain love triangle instead, so it’s not surprising that fans wanted more

As one of AG's lucky crit partners, I've had the pleasure of reading this book while it's being written and...OMG! I didn't think it was possible to fall further in love with these characters but she's managed to make it happen.I won't give any spoilers, but I will say this: UNTAMED is like a decadent dessert that follows the best meal you've ever eaten.
Absolute perfection. Review to come.
4 out of 10 ревью на русском/review in russianI think I'm just tired of this world and of Jeb in the first place (be ready, he's everywhere).So all I can say: The Boy in the Web (4 out of 10)I liked young Alison, liked young Tom-David, but I didn't get how she lied to David about his parents' death (in a car accident) and he believed her, even though he'd never seen their graves ('cause, duh, they didn't exist). Oh, and who I loved the most was Morpheus. He was the same but different, his
me: hey it's been a while since i've been emo over morpheus maybe finally i'm over him-morpheus: “Most impossible of all is a lone creature, who never once needed another living soul, having a family he would die and kill for.”me: ♫♪ hello darkness my old friend ♫♪
11/11/21 reread edit: I still love this series, but I think if I do another reread I might skip this book. It is definitely worth the read the first time, but I'm not so sure I need to again. And the whole 'solution' to the love triangle still bugs me. “An old childhood playmate once told me ‘second guessing every step prevents any forward momentum. Trust yourself. Forgive yourself. And move on.”― A.G. Howard, Untamed I try to express only my most honest opinion in a spoiler free way. If you
These were really cute companion stories to the series. I adored this series more than I truly expected. In my experience, you just never know how you will like a book when it comes to retellings but this series was awesome from book one! A bit sad to be done all the books because I really liked the characters and world built by Howard.
Edit: Heard Jeb plays a big role here. He can just go jump off a cliff for all I care. Not coming within 10 ft of this. I am dead SERIOUSIf Jeb is even mentioned in this book...
Full review posted.SPOILERS ALERT!!I’m glad it is over. I’ve had enough. “You're exquisite. You're transcendent. And you are mine.” This book is a novellas compilation that follows the events before, after and during the other books in the series. Note: I highly recommend you read it after the 3rd book or you will get spoiled.The boy in the web:This was the second-best novella and it’s Alyssa’s mother story before she came crazy and when she met Thomas in the Sister Two's nest. This novella
Morpheus & Alyssa parts: 5/5 starsJeb parts: 1/5 starsSo saying that, I had to rate it in the middle. The first two stories had me very bored and wanting to just skip over everything. But I reminded myself this: If Morpheus can wait 64 years for Alyssa to finally return to him and Wonderland, then I can be patient and wait for the Morpheus and Alyssa parts. Even though the first 3/4 of the book were dragged, the last 1/4 with Alyssa and Morpheus totally made up for it. Morpheus as a dad though,
