Description

Michael Havel was flying over Idaho en route to the holiday home of his passengers when the plane’s engines inexplicably died, forcing a less than perfect landing in the wilderness. And, as Michael leads his charges to safety, he begins to realize that the engine failure was not an isolated incident.

Juniper Mackenzie was singing and playing guitar in a pub when her small Oregon town was thrust into darkness. Cars refused to start. Phones were silent. And when an airliner crashed, no sirens sounded and no fire trucks arrived. Now, taking refuge in her family’s cabin with her daughter and a growing circle of friends, Juniper is determined to create a farming community to benefit the survivors of this crisis.

But even as people band together to help one another, others are building armies for conquest…

Reviews

AudioFile Magazine...
Novelist S.M. Stirling's latest story is reminiscent of the TV show "Lost" as it centers on a group of plane crash survivors and the residents of a small community riddled with bizarre occurrences, all of whom are fighting for survival and trying to understand what is going on. Narrator Todd McLaren gives an understated performance in which he assumes the identities of the large cast of characters and never fails to engage his listeners. Reading at a steady pace, McLaren draws listeners into the story with a personal and intimate delivery. Ultimately, the novel is successful because of McLaren's ability to breathe life into each character, thereby making the story all the more believable. L.B. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
