Molly Fyde and the Land of Light

Molly Fyde, Book 2

By: Hugh Howey

Narrated by: Jennifer O'Donnell

What began for Molly as a simple journey to retrieve her father’s old spaceship has turned into an epic adventure with far-reaching consequences. For years, she dreamed of reconnecting with her past. Now she’s going to meet it in a way she never expected: head-on.

Her father is alive. Her mother’s memories are trapped inside his old ship. She’s on the run from her very own Navy, and now has been tasked with the impossible: Rescue her parents. Save the galaxy. End a war.

Before she can begin, however, Molly must first help a friend in need. One of her crew members is in trouble, a life hanging by a slender thread. There’s only one place to turn: the home world of Humanity’s sworn enemy, the very race Molly and Cole have been trained to meet in battle and have been conditioned to fear and loathe: Planet Drenard, the next stop for the starship Parsona.

Incredible story telling

I hope these books become a Sci Fi TV series too! Get with it Amazon or Apple I don't care which.

Good story for Young Adults

Good 2nd installment of this fun, interesting Saga. Really enjoy Hugh Howey and I think this is a great series for Young Adults to get into his work. Really excited to see how the story continues!

As good as the First

I loved this book the narrator was great
full of action and suspence
You get easily attached to the the heroes

One of my all time favorites

One of my ask time favorites. An adventure that I felt like I was a part of.

Not worth it

The narration is excellent. The plot is not. I enjoy scifi and fantasy because I can suspend belief. SPOILER: In first part of book, the group is at a planet with two suns. 'so hot the trees petified.' So hot and bright the natives must limit time outside. There is no apparent water. So how can the non native humans go out in it without any skin protection? How can they survive morr then a few hours let alone the estimated two days? Where is even the slightest research into heat exhaustion and stroke? Where is the MC's who is from an apperntly advanced earth's in intelligence and common sense. How could she do more then wish to take an animal from this place? The main characters say they don't know anything about that world or the creatures in it. The MC and her navigator spent years at the naval acadamy. They were trained and indocturernated to hate the dominate race of this world. The race humans had been at war with for generations. They discover mutual feelings from them. So how could they consider the trial wouldn't be stacked against them? The same is true for them being allowed to leave the planet. The MC is still in a style I hate. She goes, sees, overcomes all obstacles without effort. This is my last book in series.
