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.

Fun read!!

I love this series! I love how well it’s written and you can picture what is going on in your head. I’m sad it ended!

Loved it!

Awesome second installment in series. Cannot wait for the continuation of the story as we see what has happened to Vic.

Good story

The narrator did a great job with the story line. Hope there is another one.

Howey is a master

Of world building. From Wool/Silo to "Danvar", Colorado and Sand.... I can not get enough of his incredible worlds and rich stories.

moving dark yet hopeful post apocalyptic survival story

the book is beautifully written. the characters are persevering and fully developed. the story is tragically hopeful and so very interesting!

Great visuals

The writing paints a picture for your mind. So creative, I loved the Sand books. Not like anything else I’ve ever read.

Couldn’t get enough

Excellent writing. Excellent narrating. Perfect building of characters stories. Perfect building of the story until it’s over. More, more, more !

Cinematic, i you loved silo series read “Sand” series

This is my new favorite author. The genre is sci fi post apocalyptic. His story telling is is cinematic like a Michael Creighton, expansive as Arthur C Clarke, imaginative like Stephen King. All of this world creation is populated by people with a strong sense of community and a underlying ethics that speaks to the resilience of humanity. Don’t get me wrong there is tragedy , there is strife, there is greed and desire . But humanity and the good in people is there to see beyond the bondage of their situation to a place of hope. What a fantastic world, for you star trek fans out there, learning how to control ‘ a world where fluidic space’ is where we must live and survive.

Love Hugh Howey

He does such a masterful job of creating worlds. My only hesitation on this one was that sometimes it was hard to keep the characters straight. Although that may have just been me.
