REVIEWS

“An exciting future-dream…an excellent, readable story.”—Frank Herbert, author of Dune

“This is a book like a mountain stream—fast, clean, clear, exciting, beautiful.”—Ursula K. LeGuin

“Anna Fields narrates with her usual mastery of the nuances of plot, mood, and character…. Fields adds to the haunting sense of reality and possibility that underlies the events set forth.”—AudioFile

“Fields does a fine job bringing McIntyre’s excellent novel to listeners. Her deep and resonant voice is perfect for the complex character of Snake and the rich nuances of the story. Using deliberate pacing and somewhat lower and softer tones for character distinctions, Fields delivers a terrific, award-winning tale to a new generation of listeners and readers.” —KLIATT
