Vika's Avenger

De: Lawrence Watt-Evans

Narrado por: Paul Licameli

Twelve thousand years in the future, on a planet far, far away, a country boy named Tulzik Ambroz tracks the man who killed his sister Vika, following him across the poisonous crater that is all that remains of the planet's starport, into the great city of Ragbaan. Ragbaan - site of the planet's original settlement, heart of a civilization that has repeatedly risen to astonishing heights of power and technological prowess, only to fall, every time, back into barbarism. How can Tulzik find his quarry in an anarchic city of three million souls, where the technology of the ancients is considered magic?

Any additional comments?

I felt that this story came alive as I listened and I was compelled to keep listening! The narrator, Paul Licameli was extremely connected to the story and helped to distinguish the characters well so I could follow who was speaking. His approach to the humor and the angst of the protagonist was spot on! The author's great story was complimented perfectly with the narration!

Pure Fantasy

Any additional comments?

Vika's Avenger is a fascinating, well thought out civilization on Tulzik's quest for revenge. The how and why of his sister's death and the question of culpability leave the reader guessing up to the very end. The narrator gave life to the different characters.
