WHISPERS OF THE BUTTERFLY, PART 1: Whisper and Scream

Ephraim Blake, a precocious child, has both intellectual gifts and serious short-comings.

Born at the very beginning of the snail-paced end of civilisation — "the Ebbs" — he will live a life long enough to document it all and possibly, to prevent extinction.

As the world is decaying into hostility, he will relentlessly fight his way through the slow-motion apocalyse in search of his vanished first love.

Navigating new challenges over decades, an unfailingly hopeful Ephraim tells us an ode to resourcefulness and problem-solving, an environmental cautionary tale, a societal critic, an exploration of extremism, an action-packed adventure and mostly, the most poignant love story.

Apocalyptic Future, maybe…

Doolittle’s ability to paint pictures with words is unmatched. Add in Dan D’s narration and I not only saw what was happening but could feel every emotion of each character. My only disappointment is part 2 is currently not available.
