ECLIPSE

High school graduation looms for Bella, and conventional worries over college applications vie with her plans for immortality and marriage to a vampire classmate, Edward Cullen. In this sequel to Meyer's TWILIGHT and NEW MOON, Ilyana Kadushin's elegant voice again moves from scenes of typical teen angst to moments of horror, including an attack by newborn vampires on the Cullen family (who have forsaken traditional vampire fodder for big game). Kadushin's growling tones and pace are terrific as she differentiates the star-crossed lovers, immersing listeners in the "clandestine world that exists around us."
