Emerald Green by Kerstin Gier – Review
Audiobook reviews , Book Reviews / July 8, 2013

Emerald Green is the final book in Kerstin Gier’s Gem Trilogy.  It follows Ruby Red and Sapphire Blue.  Originally released in German, the English translation is not available until October 2013.  However, as I read German I can and will review it for you. The three books in the trilogy read like one long book cut into three parts rather than three separate novels with separate stories and one overarching plot line. I will be reviewing them as such. As I mentioned in my recent Reading Review, I was introduced to the books fairly recently and I devoured all three in a matter of days.  They tell the story of Gwyneth (Gwendolyn in the original German) who learns that her family is the carrier of a gene allowing her to travel through time.  Unlike her cousin, she has not been inducted into the family’s secrets, so she must work things out on her own, with the help of the mysterious and attractive Gideon.

What I liked Gwyneth’s “voice.”  I loved Gwyneth’s humour and warmth as she comes to terms with her situation.  Having compared the English and German original the translator has done great work bringing that across.  I liked that…
