Eternity Road

De: Jack McDevitt

Narrado por: Justin Price

The Roadmakers left only ruins behind—but what magnificent ruins! Their concrete highways still cross the continent. Their cups, combs, and jewelry are found in every Illyrian home. They left behind a legend, too-a hidden sanctuary called Haven, where even now the secrets of their civilization might still be found.

Chaka's brother was one of those who sought to find Haven and never returned. But now Chaka has inherited a rare Roadmaker artifact—a book called A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court—which has inspired her to follow in his footsteps. Gathering an unlikely band of companions around her, Chaka embarks upon a journey where she will encounter bloodthirsty river pirates, electronic ghosts who mourn their lost civilization, and machines that skim over the ground and air. Ultimately, the group will learn the truth about their own mysterious past.

Cozy Exploration

I loved this book. Took a gamble in a sale, but it was worth it. I loved the mystery of what happened to the Road makers, the worldbuilding of the new civilization ( even though it was a bit more advanced than i would have expected ) and the adventure that was Eternity Road. Cozy, interesting, at times just enough danger to keep the blood pumping and in the end, hopeful.

Enjoyed every minute

This is a great post-apocalyptic adventure! I have thoroughly enjoyed the plot, setting and characters,

bad ending

ended abruptly halfway through the actual adventure. needed a longer ending.
leaves too much out

what a beautiful story!

The writer constantly builds this beautiful post apocalyptic world, while he lets his characters be themselves. I highly recommend it!

Great if a bit slow

a very fun listen. drags at points but well thought out anf worth a listen.
