The Ships of Earth

Homecoming, Volume 3

De: Orson Scott Card

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

With the continuing failure of the Oversoul, the artificially intelligent guardian computer of the planet Harmony, the human colonists have begun to repeat the devastations of war and conquest wrought on Earth.

To repair itself and avert disaster, the Oversoul has called a group of 16 refugees from the fallen city of Basilica to a hidden, abandoned spaceport where the ancient starships lie. Now Wetchik, Nafai, and all their family must brave the desert wastes and cross the wide continents, guided by the voice of the Oversoul, to await the command to prepare the great interstellar ships for flight again. But among this group, not all have chosen their exile, and the angry resentment of those who were forced to join will make the difficult journey harder.

Inspiring

I enjoyed the mix of primitive technology and advanced technology. It gives me the desire to write something similar.

a fully captivating story

I enjoy every single book from Orson Scott Cardand to hear the voice of Stephen Rodniky. The Saga really captivates me because of the character development

Good book- to listen to while driving

He does a great job of giving insight into peoples minds and thoughts and feelings. Story follows along very well from the first two books excited for the last.

Great narration Story ok

I guess this is a necessary part of the overall story but the second half of the book is not nearly as interesting as the first half (without giving away the plot) Still looking forward to listening to the next book 😀 as the overall story is very good

Solid book, slow start but grows on you

Overall, interesting story. Far more an exploration of the heart, mind and core animalistic needs and wants of humanity than a typical sci-if story. But thought provoking and interesting.
