Destry's life is dedicated to terraforming Sask-E. As part of the Environmental Rescue Team, she cares for the planet and its burgeoning eco-systems as her parents and their parents did before her. But the bright, clean future they're building comes under threat when Destry discovers a city full of people that shouldn’t exist, hidden inside a massive volcano. As she uncovers more about their past, Destry begins to question the mission she's devoted her life to, and must make a choice that will reverberate through Sask-E's future for generations to come.

Had Promise; Failed to Deliver
Revisado: 02-18-23
the setting is incredibly interesting and the premise waa intriguing. However, the bizarre, oddly graphic inter-species sex scenes were thoroughly unnecessary, and the dialogue was a bit weak at times. The narrator was good, but the special effects were overdone and took me out of it.
The narrative was oddly constructed and seems to me like it should have been expanded to a trilogy to better resolve character arcs. There are two time jumps in the story that made following it difficult. This was only my experience though and other listeners who prefer more special effects, or robot-on-cat romance, might enjoy it.

Persephone keeps the human clans from turning on one another through her iron will and a compassionate heart.

“In wartime,” Winston Churchill wrote, “truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” For Britain’s counterintelligence operations, this meant finding the unlikeliest agent imaginable - a history professor named Alfred Vicary, handpicked by Churchill himself to expose a highly dangerous, but unknown, traitor. The Nazis, however, have also chosen an unlikely agent.

Good book I think...
Revisado: 03-22-10
I have read/listened to many of Daniel Silvas books, and they are all very well written. The narrator on this one however leaves much to be desired. I think with a different reader, say a Scot Brick for example, I would probably rate this 4 or maybe even 5 stars. So if you don't mind much about the narration, then this is an excellent story with a good plot, however if the reader makes a difference, I would suggest another of Mr. Silvas works.

Wow! This is what audiobooks are supposed to be...
Revisado: 08-19-09
I am an audiobook junkie and this is the 5th Bryce Courtenay book I have "read". By far, one of the best books ever to have been recorded, Humphrey Bower is phenomenal in his ability to bring characters alive and make you love them, or hate them as the case may be. I would highly recommend this and all of the other Bryce Courtenay books! Most definitely worth the listen!!
