Publisher's summary

Surrounded by fire, a girl with mysterious powers and a young warrior search for safety.

Life in the wasteland is a constant struggle. No one knows it better than Taimin. Crippled, and with only his indomitable aunt to protect him, Taimin must learn to survive in a world scorched by two suns and frequented by raiders.

But when Taimin discovers his homestead ransacked and his aunt killed, he sets off with one mission: to seek revenge against those who stole everything. With nowhere to call home, his hunt soon takes a turn when he meets a mystic, Selena, who convinces him to join her search for the fabled white city. Taimin and Selena both need refuge, and the white city is a place where Taimin may find someone to heal his childhood injury.

As they avoid relentless danger, Taimin and Selena attempt to reach the one place that promises salvation. And they can only hope that the city is the haven they need it to be....

another great book

James maxwell has done it again. Not only that but I do belive Simon Vance has the voice that could make me like any book. Nonetheless I truly enjoyed this book and I would like to recommend everyone who enjoys this series to check out the everman saga by james maxwell.

Enjoyed

This is my second audio book. I have enjoyed this one better. The story line is great and I liked the way Simon added character to each character and emphasizes the different phases of the story. Good story. I recommend it

Didn't want my commute to end!

The story is well crafted, the characters are well developed, and I cannot wait to get the next one. I never wanted my commute to end and often ended up reading some after I got home.

I also love the performance of the reader. He used so many different voices and accents. Even when I was reading it instead of listening, I still used his voices in my head. Great job!

New epic Adventure

I love this story so much I've listened to it three times! I've had the others pre-ordered and waited for them to come out so I can listen to them all at one time! You don't need to do this he does NOT leave it on a cliffhanger or anything like that I just wanted to wait.
