Audible narration by Evan Rachel Wood (Westworld)

On the eve of Earth’s destruction, a young scientist discovers something too precious to lose, in a story of cataclysm and hope by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Divergent trilogy.

It’s only two weeks before an asteroid turns home to dust. Though most of Earth has already been evacuated, it’s Samantha’s job to catalog plant samples for the survivors’ unknowable journey beyond. Preparing to stay behind and watch the world end, she makes a final human connection.

As certain doom hurtles nearer, the unexpected and beautiful potential for the future begins to flower.

Veronica Roth’s Ark is part of Forward, a collection of six stories of the near and far future from out-of-this-world authors. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single thought-provoking sitting.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Narrator Evan Rachel Wood portrays Samantha in a soft, resigned tone that fits a story in which humanity has already been through the painful grieving process and has settled into a somber acceptance of its fate...it’s the gentle emphasis Wood gives to the connections between humans that makes this audiobook such a compelling listen." --AudioFile magazine

"…A sensational project...." --Spine Magazine

“This is exactly how I like my techno-anxiety.... Happy bingeing!” --Audible, an October Editors Pick

Love the story and narrator!

This is a short audiobook but a powerful story. I read the book then listened to it on Audible.
I won’t say a lot as there would be spoilers. But the characters are well developed. It brings all the feels. And the narrator draws you in. Evan Rachel Wood does a brilliant job with the story. Bravo!!!

This has a nice twist at the end ...

The story has long descriptive narrative elements, too much so for me, but I think Roth does do a great job with descriptive elements, there are those that do love that and the main reason the get stories like these ...

It does have a story. It comes at the end. So be prepared for a long wait as you listen but it is there ... reminds of Asimov's short "The Star" wow that was a long time ago ...

Well done really!

Excellent story!

I gave this story all 5 stars because it was well written and narrated. Captivating from the very beginning and throughout. Highly recommend for teens and adults alike.

Powerful in the Moment Story

Those last few minutes of earth observed by scientists whose senses are heighten by knowing this may be the last time.....

Quick, intriguing listen

An interesting listen on a relevant topic.. Was ready to hear it again as soon as it was finished! Evan Rachel Wood did a good job with the narration.
