The Seam

Texas Accelerated, Book 1

De: Tyler Lenz

Narrado por: Zach Hebert

Small towns can have big secrets, and this secret may have changed the world forever... When the people of Waxahachie, Texas wake to find themselves cut off from the rest of the world and surrounded by an unfamiliar and dangerous wilderness, they must work together to survive and unravel the cause of the mysterious 'seam'.

Ellis County, Texas, is turned on its head when everyone within a twenty-mile radius wakes up in a world they don't recognize - a world populated by animals long since extinct. It's up to a tired sheriff and a former Army Ranger to set aside their differences, solve the mystery, and keep the people of Ellis County and Waxahachie safe.

loved it

A great book to listen to. Definitely very enjoyable and easy to follow and understand. The narrator does a great job. I would definitely listen to this book multiple times. Overall excellent book to listen to.

Engaging story and characters!

The story was very engaging, with some very nice setup. None of the characters seemed similar and their development was interesting and believable. I have to say that the story kept me listening and on the edge of my seat for the entire book. The narrator was not my favorite, and didn't have the energy that I expected with the action. Though they improved over the story, the writing was good enough that at some point I stopped analyzing the narration. I will say that the narrator did some characters really well, Damion for example. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone that wants an exciting story with excellent science portions that are not overwhelming. I loved it and am looking forward to the next book!

interesting idea well delivered

I received a code as the premise was interesting and it's a good book. Should be an interesting series

Fresh perspective in an often-overused scenario

Stories of accidental time travel or misplaced characters are everywhere these days, from the modern Marvel universe to classics like Gulliver's Travels. With The Seam, however, listeners are treated to a fresh environment with believable characters and a rough situation to overcome. With appropriate time spent developing personalities and motivations, we follow citizens and visitors of a Texas town that have found themselves suddenly and inexplicably surrounded by fierce wilderness with no communication and no power. Through sheer determination and sharing of knowledge, answers are slowly revealed about the cause of their plight, and who (or what) was responsible. However, before they can battle the encroaching creatures on the outside, there are devious plots to uncover and halt from the inside. Clear and diverse narration from Zach Hebert brings this exciting story with tense action to life. I'm looking forward to book 2. [Disclosure: I received this title for free and listened at 1.85x.]

Very well written

Love the entire story. Never got slow or uninteresting kept you intrigued the entire time highly recommend this book to anyone.
