Three hundred million years ago, the galactic community was taken by surprise. A catastrophic war with a hostile entity threatened to destroy all life until the fight was postponed by a calamitous event known as the Great Conflation. With the majority of pre-Conflation empires in ruins and the Ascended Biologicals wiped out, the hastily formed Wanderer Enclave tasked its fleet with unearthing answers and continuing the fight.
One lone ship has found something: an innocuous world it had marked for routine decontamination that may hold vital answers.
Gil, a young woman with special abilities, battles to save the future of her commune and possibly much more.

I was really enjoying it up to that point. It was well written, and Mr. Price has a very luxurious easy to listen to voice, but the ending...well, for me anyway, there wasn't one.
I received a promotional copy of this book and have left this review voluntarily.
It was going very well, and then it just ended...

Decent to great depending taste

There is no sexual content or profanity but it does have some violence but it is mild. The ironic thing is I would recommend this book. If you can get over the other POV then this is not a bad book.
OK

I am sorry but it is hard to listen to any Book if you struggle to listen to the performance.
The work deserves a better chance to be presented to the listener.

Audio quality needs to be improved

Good story, narrator does terrible women's voices, always sounds like they are whining. Just give them a difference, don't try to sound feminine, it doesn't work with your voice.
Poor audio production quality, good story.

It's like there are two different books. The odd-numbered chapters are from a spaceship. It reads like a boring history or science lesson. I had no idea what was going on.
The even-numbered chapters are from the perspective of people, primarily Gil or the title, who live on a primitive world in a collective. I loved these chapters.
Maybe it's because the odd-numbered chapters felt so technical. Maybe it's because there really wasn't a character to lock onto. I just couldn't wait to get through those chapters.
I really enjoyed the characters in the even-numbered chapters. I loved learning about their world and their relationships to each other. I wish the whole book could have been written from Gil's point of view. Though it's frustrating to think that Gil lost the ability to speak as the result of an accident as a child and many years later, they still hadn't developed some sort of sign language or pictorial communication. Just because there's no written language doesn't mean you can't draw pictures to communicate! Deaf people make up gestures to communicate even when they don't know sign language, so that part was very frustrating to me.
I really, really, REALLY wanted to like this book. It just kept missing the mark.
It might have helped if the audio quality was better. The narrator has this wonderful, deep, rumbling James Earl Jones voice, but sound engineers, you have to turn down the bass or it just sounds rumbly. I could actually feel the car vibrating from the bass when I listened in the car. Maybe not reading in a monotone would have helped the technical chapters, though I think he might have been doing that on purpose to convey the mechanical nature of the narrator for those chapters. If that's what he was doing, it didn't work. His wonderfully soothing voice, with bass so strong it was hard to tell what he was saying, just kind of lulled me to sleep.
I think this one might work better as a print book where I can more easily refer back to the science-y chapters to help understand what's going on as I need to, and not have to struggle so hard to understand the narrator.

I found it hard to follow, but I will listen again

The narrator's voice grated on my ears. While he was able to capture some of the characters' emotions decently, he mispronsounced some words and spoke with so much bass, that it was difficult to follow/enjoy the endless dialogue.
Great Concept, Weak Execution

So glad the audio was fixed because this was a really good book. I really enjoyed the story and thought the author did a great job world building. The characters were interesting. The narrator did a great job with the voices and really brought this book to life. All in all, I think this is definitely worth a listen.
A great story
