For Oxford student Kivrin, traveling back to the 14th century is more than the culmination of her studies - it's the chance for a wonderful adventure. For Dunworthy, her mentor, it is cause for intense worry about the thousands of things that could go wrong.

The poor reviews are wrong - I'm glad I purchased!
Revisado: 05-12-23
I took the advice of another listener and set the speed to 1.2x. The style of writing took a little bit to get used to and then I couldn't stop listening. The foreshadowing was sometimes obvious. However, the story was unique and captivating, yet dark.; "better to have loved and lost then never to have loved at all" (Lord Alfred Tennyson).

Someone is spreading rumors around Deadwood that Violet Parker likes to chat with dead folks. With her reputation endangered, her bank account on the verge of extinction, and her career at risk of going up in flames, Violet is desperate. When the opportunity to sell another vintage home materializes, she grabs it, even though this "haunted" house was recently the stage for a two-act murder-suicide tragedy.

Adam Binder has lost what matters most to him. Having finally learned the true identity of the warlock preying on his family, what was supposed to be a final confrontation with the fiend instead became a trap that sent Adam’s beloved Vicente into the realm of the dead, where none living are meant to be. Bound by debt, oath, and love, Adam blazes his own trail into the underworld to get Vicente back, and to end the threat of the warlock once and for all. But the road to hell is paved with far more than good intentions.

Vivid and believable. Better ending wanted after Adam opens warlock wound against John; too rushed.

When Evangeline is sent to live in a small mill town in Northern England as a schoolteacher in 1871, she finds herself struggling to fit in with an unfamiliar culture. Raised with the high-class Victorian values and ideals of a sophisticated upbringing, she is unprepared for the poverty she finds in the gritty factory town of Smeatley, where the locals speak with a hard-to-understand Yorkshire accent and struggle to thrive with few resources or opportunities. Though she has no training as a teacher, she must prove herself successful before her grandfather will release her inheritance.

Romance with Inspiration
Revisado: 11-23-22
There is history, romance, and a splash of modernist ideology. Hope and love follow persistence and determination. I highly recommend this story by Ms. Eden as wonderfully narrated by Ms. Eyer.

Alison Kerby’s guesthouse is haunted all year round. Surviving the dead of winter, though? That’s a spooky proposition. Even with a blizzard bearing down on New Jersey, Alison can count on at least two guests—Paul and Maxie, the stubborn ghosts who share her shore town inn.

Entertaining but a bit awkward
Revisado: 11-19-22
The previous stories were more developed. The foreshadowing is too obvious. The story is just not as captivating as other stories by Copperman.

Neil Shah's performance was impressive with its ability to draw me deeply into the universe where simulation created the ultimate test of character for both the test taker and the test giver. Bravo to Sylvain Neuvel for writing inteligently with finesse. I recommend this book.

Surprisingly Insightful Sci-fi Short Story
Revisado: 09-27-22
This is a fresh story for me. I couldn't stop listening and stayed up later than I should have. It was well worth being a bit sleepy in the morning. I enjoyed Sylvain Neuvel's writing and the talented voices of all the narrators.

Parochial & predictable - salvageable performance

I kept hoping for a twist but it never came. Good potential writing but no story development or depth. I can't recommend.

Lanik Mueller is a "rad" - radical regenerative - a freak who can regenerate injured flesh...and trade extra body parts to the Offworld oppressors for iron. On a planet without hard metals, or the means of escape, iron offers the promise of freedom through the chance to build a spacecraft. But it is a promise which may never be fulfilled, as Lanik uncovers a treacherous conspiracy beyond his imagination.

Creative - philosophy & believable science fiction
Revisado: 09-15-22
Orson Scott Card's intelligent imagination has brought about a clever story. The typical sci-fi beginning soon turns sharply left to embrace a surprising philosophy on the value and meaning of being alive. The details in the writing make up for its shortfall in depth. Rudnicki has a smooth voice that creates a more immersive experience for the listener. I highly recommend this Audible edition.

Kidnapped at an early age, Ansset has been raised in isolation at a mystical retreat called the Songhouse. His life is filled with music, and having only songs for companions, he develops a voice that is unlike any other. But Ansset's voice is both a blessing and a curse, for it reflects all the hopes and fears of his audience, and, by magnifying their emotions, can be used either to heal or to destroy.

Unique and stunning on many levels
Revisado: 09-12-22
The story is praiseworthy in its crafting. I feel like I have missed some of the depth of particular elements; the meaning of the wild animals of the flatlands.I want to find more skillful reviews. However, I can identify mastery when I see and hear it. Rudnicki is extremely talented as the narrator. I highly recommend this Audible book!
