Across the Sand

De: Hugh Howey

Narrado por: Jeremy Arthur

“Hugh’s imaginative worlds and tales within them never fail to entertain!”

—Andy Weir, New York Times bestselling author of Project Hail Mary

The first original novel from author Hugh Howey in six years, Across the Sand takes us back to the world of Sand, to a far future many generations after a disaster has destroyed civilization as we know it, where four siblings struggle to build their futures amid the harsh wastes of endless desert.

The old world is buried. A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes, a land of howling wind and infernal sand.

In this barren home, siblings Conner, Rob, Palmer and Violet daily carve out a future. They live in the shadow of their father and oldest sister, Vic, two of the greatest sand divers ever to comb the desert’s depths. But these branches of their family tree are long gone, disappeared into the wastes beyond, leaving the younger siblings scratching in the dust, hopeful for a better life.

On the other side of No Man’s Land, Anya was born beside the abundant mines knowing her prospects would be to marry, have a family, and work in ore, in service to the Empire of the East. But when an atomic bomb delivered by a stranger destroys most of her town—murdering all her friends and community—she follows her father to a strange land of dunes to bring vengeance to their enemies.

Waiting on the end

Hope Howey finishes this political tale of a small band of survivors trying to believe in each other as they organize against hate and blind greed. Waiting for more please.

Strains credulity, but truly visionary

It’s not easy keeping track of all the factions and characters but the payoff is pretty engaging. The fact that these people had any water, vegetables, beer or way to keep their gear charged up was hard to believe. Good characters but a bit of a messianic twist at the end. Also, the Southwest will always have Spanish speakers no matter what happens and I would have liked that represented.

Excellent!

Compelling story line & characters. Reflective/philosophical. Wonderful narration & voice acting throughout. Thoroughly enjoyed. Imaginative. I hope they made this into a movie one day.

Love Hugh’s stories.

Great listen, well performed. Doesn’t hurt that it’s based in my home area. Eager to listen or read the next stage of this tale.
