About This Audiobook

In 'Especiales', Scott Westerfeld masterfully continues his Uglies series, delving deeper into a world where beauty is engineered and conformity is the norm. Tally, our once-rebellious protagonist, has traded her 'ugly' status for the privileges of being a 'special', but at what cost? Westerfeld's signature blend of thought-provoking societal commentary and thrilling action propels the narrative, while Ainhoa Maiquez's narration brings a unique Spanish accent that lends an exotic touch to this dystopian tale, making it a distinctive listen.

Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

Ainhoa Maiquez's narration is a standout feature of this audiobook. Her ability to convey Tally's internal conflict, from her initial excitement about her new 'special' status to her growing unease, is nothing short of remarkable. Maiquez's performance also brings out the chilling undertones of this dystopian society, where beauty is literally cut and sculpted to fit a particular mold. However, the pacing feels slightly off at times, with some action sequences rushing by while others linger a bit too long. Despite this, 'Especiales' is a compelling listen that will keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering what Tally will do next.
