    Story

    This is a tale of sorrow, a tale of survival, a tale of one man's search for meaning in his universe, and how that search, and the indomitable will that drove it, gave birth to a legend.

    Where does The Name of the Wind rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    It starts out slow but it turns into a great story. Keeps you on your toes the after half way mark. In the first half, story is developed and characters are all settling in to place. In the end, you can't wait for the second book. It's a great listen if you like books of adventure and adolescent growth with lots of magic and music.


    What about Nick Podehl’s performance did you like?

    He has a great voice technique. All characters have distinct voices and you will get lost in the story, the way he tells it.


    Any additional comments?

    One of the best books out there.

    The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador’s telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it’s hard to know what to make of it. It’s massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

    El Cavador has other problems. Their systems are old and failing. The family is getting too big for the ship. There are claim-jumping corporate ships bringing Asteroid Belt tactics to the Kuiper Belt.

    "Nice prequel."

    It is one of the best books by Mr. Card.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Earth Unaware?

    Spoiler: in the end when the main character reached moon.

    It's a must read for all Ender's game fans.
