Acerca de esta escucha

In Adrian Tchaikovsky's Elder Race, a junior anthropologist on a distant planet must help the locals he has sworn to study to save a planet from an unbeatable foe.

Lynesse is the lowly Fourth Daughter of the queen, and always getting in the way.

But a demon is terrorizing the land, and now she's an adult (albeit barely) with responsibilities (she tells herself). Although she still gets in the way, she understands that the only way to save her people is to invoke the pact between her family and the Elder sorcerer who has inhabited the local tower for as long as her people have lived here (though none in living memory has approached it).

But Elder Nyr isn't a sorcerer, and he is forbidden to help, and his knowledge of science tells him the threat cannot possibly be a demon . . .

Lo que los oyentes dicen sobre Elder Race

Con calificación alta para:

The Story Blends Science Fiction And Fantasy Elements In A Unique And Compelling Way, Exploring The Clash Between An Advanced Civilization And A More Primitive One Through The Lens Of An Anthropologist Stranded In A Medieval-like World. The World-building And Character Dynamics Are Praised, As Is The Thought-provoking Allegory And Clever Storytelling Style That Switches Between Real-time And Internal Narration. However, Some Found The Ending Unsatisfying, The Narration Pretentious Or Unintelligible, And The Dialogues Overstuffed. The Themes Explored Include Culture Clash, Technology Vs. Magic, Mental Illness, Anthropology, And Isolation.

Pretty solid little novella with an interesting take on Magic

If you are interested in “hard magic” or even just the discussion thereof, as it relates to fantasy, this ostensibly, science-fiction, short novel might be an interesting read for you.

Interesting Concept

An anthropologist finds himself stranded in a non technological civilization. I enjoyed this book. I found the narration difficult to hear at times as the narrator has a tendency to end his sentences quietly. However I found the plot and characters interesting. Dealing with mental illness, the value of different personality types, and the way technology can seem like magic to non advanced people are some of the themes explored.

A story about a fun relationship,

Starts off a bit plodding seeming like a dense fantasy universe, but it ends up being rather charming.

Good listen

Adrian Tchaikovsky is always worth listening to. This was short but satisfying-a Novella rather than a novel.

The perspective switch gave this trope a unique and interesting feel that felt fresh.

It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to an audio book in one sitting. The story was straight forward in a broad sense yet the blending of sci fi and fantasy felt wholly original.

A beautiful story

A juxtaposition of science fiction and fantasy. a tale of Arthur c. Clarke's third law with a very satisfying end

Wonderful

I wish it was twice as long. I think there is a lot of room in this idea of a person as the lone member of an extinct society who can only be viewed as a wizard by the relativity primitive people of the present.

An interesting study of character

Fantastic short story about the “last wizard” cliche and puts a human face on that character.

The juxtaposition of the character's two worlds,

I'm a fan of books that tell a story whether it be days of dragons, heroes, and kings or the fantasy of space exploration adventure, logic, and technology . This book marries both together with all the complications one would imagine in trying to comprehend an opposite world so different from your own reality. Artful in the telling, so much so I didn't realize immediately that this was the plot being served.

What an adventure!

This was such a fun listen, I would be very interested in a series expanding on the world Tchaikovsky created.
