The Missing, Book 3

By: Margaret Peterson Haddix

Narrated by: Chris Sorensen

Best-selling and award-winning author Margaret Peterson Haddix delivered an instant classic when she launched her Missing series. Two books ago, a plane landed with no pilot and no adults—and a passenger load of 36 infants. Years later, teens were shocked when clues began to turn up about just what it meant to be one of “the missing.” Now young heroes Jonah and Katherine must help a girl return to the past amid a host of unexpected challenges.

Critic reviews

“Best of the series so far.” ( Kirkus Reviews)

Amazing series!!!

I loved it so good I am waiting for the Fourth book to come in the mail!!

Looking forward

Halfway through this series and it just keeps building up to something i can feel it

Good series -- narration needs improvement

I do like this series. It's a very interesting concept, to have been kidnapped from history, raised in the future, and then brought back to an unfamiliar point in history. Margaret Peterson Haddix is no stranger to unique "what if" scenarios (i.e. Among the Hidden series). However, the reason I knocked off two stars: First, the narrator. Chris Sorenson must not think much of preteen kids. He obviously thinks they are the same as three year olds. Either that or he thinks the listener is a three year old. That sing-song puppet show voice he uses to represent Jonah and the other kids is condescending and annoying. His reading style is even more strange in that he pauses for about 2 seconds between each and every sentence. It's distracting. The other star was taken off for Haddix's endless bombardment of questions in the book. There must have been pages and pages of questions sprouting from Jonah, i.e. Why did they bring us here? What was the man trying to do? Who are those people? Where are the others. What time period is this? I realize there's supposed to be a bit of mystery, but you are the author. Tell us, don't ask us, especially when you're wasting a good 15 minutes of my time asking me questions you already know the answer to! I'd like to read or listen to the next book in the series, but I hope they improve the two things I mentioned, especially the narration.

great Read Fantastic Series

Haddix does a great job of capturing history, mystery, action, and intrigue for both adults and younger ones.
