Historia
This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Historia
The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor.

Expansive story

Interesting characters, almost too full of adventure, surprisingly detailed creation of a imaginative world. Would make a good TV series.

Historia
Maine, 1789: When the Kennebec River freezes, entombing a man in the ice, Martha Ballard is summoned to examine the body and determine cause of death. As a midwife and healer, she is privy to much of what goes on behind closed doors in Hallowell. Her diary is a record of every birth and death, crime and debacle that unfolds in the close-knit community. Months earlier, Martha documented the details of an alleged rape committed by two of the town’s most respected gentlemen—one of whom has now been found dead in the ice.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Great audiobook!
Revisado: 12-21-21
Enjoyed this very much. Learned and pondered so many new ideas. Normally I do not enjoy a lot of flashbacks but those sequences actually worked well in this book, building the “what happened next” vibe with just the right tension. One thing, the narration distracted me some because from time to time I was sure Tom Hanks was reading the book. Still wonder if he was really the narrator under an assumed name!

Bring your tissue and enjoy a good old love story
Revisado: 02-16-16
You wouldn't expect a story about love and loss to be so compelling and satisfying, but it is. You wouldn't expect a story about different family styles and classes to be grimly funny, but it is. You wouldn't expect to learn so much about freedom of choice and expanding the horizons of life, but you do. Loved this book. Will recommend it frequently.

Historia
Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

On December 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Wilbur and Orville Wright's Wright Flyer became the first powered, heavier-than-air machine to achieve controlled, sustained flight with a pilot aboard. The Age of Flight had begun. How did they do it? And why?

Vintage work by the best history writer

Wonderful presentation of the moment we flew into the modern age. Warm, enough detail without being swamped by facts, paced so that each new episode early awIted. Most enjoyable listening for a very under told story. As usual this author is golden.

Revisado: 10-07-12
Would you listen to Naamah's Kiss again? Why?
Yes, I will listen to this one again. Kept me interested all the way.
What does Anne Flosnik bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Emotional expression, variety of voices.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Passion, adventure, and heroism all wrapped in one.
Any additional comments?
Plan to listen to the other 2 installments and othere work by this author.
