The Song of the Orphans

The Silvers, Book 2

De: Daniel Price

Narrado por: Rich Orlow

The second book in the genre-bending Silvers series - an io9 "can't miss" science fiction pick - about six extraordinary people whose fates become intertwined on an Earth far different from our own.

After their world collapsed in a sheet of white light, everything and everyone was gone - except for Hannah and Amanda Given. Saved from destruction by three fearsome and powerful beings, the Given sisters found themselves on a strange new Earth where restaurants move through the air like flying saucers and the fabric of time is manipulated by common household appliances. There, they were joined by four other survivors - a sarcastic cartoonist, a shy teenage girl, a brilliant young Australian, and a troubled ex-prodigy. Hunted by enemies they never knew they had, and afflicted with temporal abilities they never wanted, the sisters and their companions began a cross-country journey to find the one man who could save them.

Now, only months after being pursued across the country by government forces and the Gothams - a renegade group with similar powers - the Silvers discover that their purpose on this unfamiliar Earth may be to prevent its complete annihilation. With continually shifting alliances and the future in jeopardy, the Silvers realize that their only hope for survival is to locate the other refugees - and determine whether they can be trusted or not.

Been waiting for this!!

I loved the first book. I love how different the "magic" system is, considering it's not really magic...

This book had a few sophomore slump sections, but overall, it moved the story along very well. The character development that engaged me in the first book, continued.

The biggest twist actually caught me off guard--because the author had me second guessing myself throughout.

I love these books, and I believe this one was well worth the wait.

Heart wrenching, thrilling, fascinating, funny.

Excellent narration. Great continuation of a sci-fi action packed, romantic, time bending, world breaching story.

Next huge miniseries?

I’ve read and listened to the first two books in this series multiple times. Can’t wait for the third.
These books would make the greatest tv miniseries!
Looking forward to finding out who they cast.

Great follow up

I didn’t want it to end. Now I’ll have to wait until the 3rd book comes out. I’m looking forward to it.
Also, the narrator is fantastic. He makes me forget that a male I’d doing the female voices.

Fantastic

I loved these books. They were great. I bought these as audio books to listen to in the truck and was not disappointed. I will be biting my nails waiting for the next book to come out!
