The Redemption of Christopher Columbus

De: Orson Scott Card

Narrado por: Scott Brick, Christopher Cazenove, Gabrielle de Cuir, Arte Johnson, Moira Quirk, Stefan Rudnicki, Orson Scott Card

In a not-too-distant future that is not quite ours, there has been a major scientific breakthrough. It is a way to open windows into the past, permitting historical researchers to view, but not participate, in the events of the past.

In one of the most powerful and thought-provoking novels of his remarkable career, Orson Scott Card interweaves a compelling portrait of Christopher Columbus with the story of a future scientist who believes she can alter human history from a tragedy of bloodshed and brutality to a world filled with hope and healing.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A bold and compassionate alternative history filled with believable historical and fictional characters." ( Library Journal)

sodom and gomorrah SCI-FI style

This series is very entertaining, especially if you've studied the bible and enjoy SCI-FI. And I love the narrator.

Brilliant Book

I have been an Orson Scott Card fan for years, and I never thought he could top Ender's Game, but he has. What a unique, creative, and gripping story.

An incredibly entertaining, imaginative listen

Always like this author but the blend of history, socialogy, anthropology, and sci-fi was great! What the world might have been like if only a few little things had gone differently.

fun to listen to

the book was great. love to look at the what ifs of history and think about how things might have been with a few changes. as always the narrators did a fantastic job of endearing you to the characters.

every bit as good as I remember

I read this book in high school and loved it, now I loved it even more being able to hear it and not have to struggle with some of the pronunciations in my head. I would definitely reccommend it to any sci-fi or alternate history fan.
