Summary
AFTER TWO CENTURIES....The sound came swiftly nearer, rising in pitch and swelling in volume. Then it broke through the clouds, tall and black and beautifully deadly - the Gern battle cruiser, come to seek them out and destroy them. Humbolt dropped inside the stockade, exulting. For two hundred years his people had been waiting for the chance to fight the mighty Gern Empire ... with bows and arrows against blasters and bombs! (Summary from the Gutenberg text)

Enjoyed from the beginning to the end. I wish there was a sequel.

A very interesting concept of passing generations being the main protagonist of the story spread over a few hundred years.

I found myself getting attached to characters. Free advice: don't do that. Loved the whole story! The narration is great.

Profile Avatar Jeremy Marks Jan 2017

I was stunned to find that this book quickly became one of my all time favorites. Does it have a cheesy name? And have I never heard of Tom Goodwin? Yes and yes. But boy did I get my money's worth from this saga. I undoubtedly will read this book again, and I may even listen to this recording a second time on account of its phenomenal narration. 10/10

A good entertaining yarn, well-narrated. Sometimes the best things in life are free!

Profile Avatar Suzan F. Nov 2023

It was definitely worth the listen. It was hard to follow sometimes and was heart wrenching.

Profile Avatar Louise C. May 2023

Really really enjoyed this book, everything was very well thought out and made for very believable character and plot development

Awesome listening when on 5 plus hour road trip

Profile Avatar Jennifer P. Dec 2022

The story start ed with lots of technical jargon which,for me, made connecting with the storyline difficult. I would not recommend this story.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Nov 2022

Not what I was expecting. Rather predictable but not boring.

“Our women will go with us” The women had babies and died. *eye roll* if you like this narrative, it’s all yours. Did not care for the book. Dreary, no emotional connection to the characters to care if they died, I cared more for the prowlers.

Profile Avatar Rod F. Jan 2022

Excellent!

Profile Avatar Jeff Feb 2021

I enjoyed this book, it didn’t however go where I expected…

Profile Avatar Anonymous Feb 2021

Great story enjoyed it thoroughly, as usual some pronunciations of normal words felt off to me though I believe that’s due to the difference between American English and “the real thing”. Well worth a listen

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jun 2020

Fantastic! Loved how it unfolded. Mark Nelson is so easy to listen to!

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jan 2019

I prefer the original title of the novel — The Survivors. I did not like the ending (a little bit too happy), but I enjoyed the book.

Profile Avatar Timothy S. Jul 2018

This was the first sci-fi book I ever read and I was hooked. I never forgot how it made me feel although title and author dripped out of one of my ears sometime in the late sixties. Over the years I’ve questioned every serious sci-fi fan I met if they recognized the plot line without success. Then earlier this year I was browse-listening to the sci-fi group of LibriVox books and I recognized my old friend, still as good as ever!

Profile Avatar Walter F Feb 2018

Great read! Good flow!

Profile Avatar John R Aug 2017

I really enjoyed the story. The narrator took some getting used to, but overall, good science fiction.

Profile Avatar adam croce Feb 2017

I loved it. It was an excellent and entertaining read!

Profile Avatar david frederick Jan 2017

Most interesting.

Profile Avatar Noah Levan Oct 2016

Excellent and short. 10/10 narrator . If you like space and a story that plays with the idea of evolution listen to this. Free and captivating

Profile Avatar guy gomes Sep 2016

Profile Avatar Joel Adams Sep 2016

Great book, I was hooked from beginning to end. I wish there was a second!

Profile Avatar Timothy Barker Jul 2016

Don't get attached to any characters, it's a very good story.

Profile Avatar Steven Birns Apr 2016

A great book. Really holds your intrest. Hard to put down I'm never heard of Tom Godwin but I'm am glad I'm found him.
