After global devastation, the last remnants of Earth sent a handful of colonists of a distant terraformed world to give humanity one last, desperate chance. Unable to provide the technology required for an advanced civilization, the founders instilled in the colonists a strict code of conduct and gave them a few precious imprinting devices: glass helmets that contain all of Earth's scientific knowledge. Once in a generation, the heir to the province of Laal begins the arduous training required to survive the imprinting of the Glass Helm and acquire the knowledge of the lost Earth.

Antarctic ice. In the world where hundreds of millions of people have been displaced from their homes by the Deluge - a hundred-foot-rise in sea level from melting ice caps - Partricia Beenan is lucky. She is still an American citizen with the right to live on the continent, unlike so many 'wetfoots' whose homes lie deep under the waves or the refugees from nations now completely under water.

The bugs showed up about 50 years ago - self-replicating, solar-powered, metal-eating machines. No one knows where they came from. They don't like water, though, so they've stayed in the desert Southwest. The territory. People still live here, but they do it without metal. Log cabins, ceramics, what plastic they can get that will survive the sun and heat. Technology has adapted, and so have the people.

When marine private Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is killed in the marine barrack bombing in Beirut, somebody who might be Saint Peter gives him a choice: Go to heaven, which, while nice, might be a little boring, or return to earth. The Boss has a mission for him, and he's to look for a sign. He's a marine: He'll choose the mission. Unfortunately, the sign he's to look for is "57". Which, given the food services contract in Bethesda Hospital, creates some difficulty. Eventually it appears that God's will is for Chad to join a group called Monster Hunters International.

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

Not bad-Not terrrific
The idea for this story was really good. The execution was good. The characters fell short on believability. It goes like this; 18 year old kid finds a gate to a alternate earth, one without humans, recruits his friends to harvest animals and minerals from the other earth, the one with sabre toothed tigers, to this earth for profit. Military/CIA spoils the party, things get messy, bad guys lose. fairly hypocritical good guy; protect other earth while using it's resources and polluting it for his personal gain. Worth a listen nothing to rave about.

What if you could....
Step into another world rich with resources like for instance, gold? Stuff that you can sell in this world for lots of money? And then suppose you told your very best friends about it so they could help you haul it back to this world and share in the wealth? This is a great story with action and suspense but not what you’re thinking given the cover art. Now I did have a little trouble swallowing teens randomly knowing that much about legal issues and it’s a bit heavy with the avionics and mechanics but those issues are minor and hey if your into those things, bonus for you. The take away is the story is really good and will hold your attention. Good job with the narration as well.

Breath taking read
What did you love best about Wildside?
I had read this book when it first hit the library and enjoyed it. I had forgot about it over the years and this was read well enough it like reading a new book!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Wildside?
When the secret is revealed to Charlie's friends.
What about Paul Boehmer’s performance did you like?
The man made each character come alive. That is hard to do for more than four characters.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, I did listen to it in one sitting!
Any additional comments?
Well worth the time and money!

And welcome to it...
What made the experience of listening to Wildside the most enjoyable?
The characters really came to life over the the arc of the story.
What other book might you compare Wildside to and why?
Somewhat thematically similar to Stephen King's 1963. Both are compelling in their own ways.
Which scene was your favorite?
The scenes of the new world are powerful
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The growing maturity of the relationships between everyone was moving.
Any additional comments?
This book jumps around alot, and occassionally doesnt make logical sense. It seems like certain details were edited out, or something was missin at times. That said, I got pulled in and eventually really took to this outing. I recommend it, notwithstanding the issues noted.

Great story; Narrator is so-so
The story was fun and fast-paced, and often left me on the edge of my seat. I liked the complex interpersonal relationships of the main characters, with conflict and redemption. The narration was tolerable, but not great. The narrator puts strong emphasis on many words, but not always the right words. This happens most when he is speaking as the narrator. When he voices the characters, he seems to get it right. He does a good job of giving each character a unique voice.

Okay but no Jumper series.
I really enjoy Gould's style of realism in his fantasy usually- detailing all the necessities of doing fantastical things, like the preparation of the Aerie and keeping an ailing elderly woman alive in space, but this one seemed like a lot of prep for not a lot of payoff. I also found it a bit too Eco-preachy, especially at the end.

suspend disbelief
What did you love best about Wildside?
I liked the basic premise of the story
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
It was a bit hard to belief.
Which scene was your favorite?
I liked the scenes describing the "wild side."
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
There just seemed to be so many parts of this story that were flat. I won't spoil things for readers, but given the scenario, I would have SOOOOOOO many questions to ask. Perhaps because we are dealing with teenagers they are more concerned with little things than asking big questions.

Great plot potential, Terrible character relations
Superb story that the author thought up, I love the premise to death. I absolutely hate how the author carried out the character relationships.
I had to drop the book two hours in since I didn't want to listen any more about how sad the main character is with how much he likes the other character's girlfriend. It was actually to the point of overshadowing the interesting main story. I honestly don't understand why people like to listen to sadness porn like this, it's infuriating as heck to listen to.
Not even to mention that the author forced the hell out of the situation and didn't leave any foreseeable way out of it in the future. Why would he invite them to live in his house? Or even invite them into the wildside in the first place when he said he didn't trust the girl anymore and the guy clearly isn't very bright? The logical errors in the plot between these characters are so glaring its just sad.
I don't understand why authors literally try to push readers away with crap like this. I think some sadness and heartbreak is fine in a story to build character, but making it a chronic part of the background makes it feel toxic to read. When something is that toxic, it's not even fun to immerse yourself into the story anymore.

Wow! Great story, great characters, good twists and turns. This is not a book that you will have all figured out before it is over. The premise of the story is original and entertaining.
It kept me interested all the way through. Great way to make the miles go by.
