I have heard this and all of the books in the series before it landed here.
The experience were Mr. Lowell tells his own stories brings you to a place deep down in the best character shaping of all time.
Wish I could hear him reading the latest books as well.
The book series is easy to follow but extremely detailed. The shaping of time and place is like I wish I could experience this future myself. Wish i was in a lifetime were I could meet the characters in this addicting story.
Maybe the greatest science fiction books in modern time.
