Story
Perhaps it wasn't from our time, perhaps it wasn't even from our universe, but the arrival of the 300-kilometer long stone was the answer to humanity's desperate plea to end the threat of nuclear war. Inside the deep recesses of the stone lies Thistledown: the remnants of a human society, versed in English, Russian and Chinese. The artifacts of this familiar people foretell a great Death caused by the ravages of war, but the government and scientists are unable to decide how to use this knowledge.

They first appear as a series of dots on astronomical plates, heading from Saturn directly toward Earth. Since the ringed planet carries no life, scientists deduce the mysterious ship to be a visitor from another star. The world's frantic efforts to signal the aliens go unanswered. The first contact is hostile: the invaders blast a Soviet space station, seize the survivors, and then destroy every dam and installation on Earth with a hail of asteriods.

But how is the CIA to be persuaded to pay a suitable ransom, unless of course someone actually uses the plan to throw a large city into chaos - Los Angeles, for instance?

When their hopes for ending Moquoia's brutal system of bondage are crushed, unlikely allies Lark and Veran are forced to flee into the harsh desert. With no weapons or horses, they must make their way to safety across the 50-mile expanse of waterless plains known as the water scrape.

Worth the time
What made the experience of listening to The Forge of God the most enjoyable?
The speaker
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
less changes between different strings of story
Have you listened to any of Stephen Bel Davies’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
It's a very very good performance. He is very pleasant to listen to and he gave the story a lot of additonal character. in a good way.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Spellbinding & Terrifying
This is one of the best sci-fi novels I have EVER READ!
Alien beings bring contradictory messages to the people of Earth. Which are you going to believe?! How can you discover what the truth really is? How should mankind react to these puzzling visitors from another world? How much should you make public? These are questions that some of the Earth's leaders have to ask themselves and the "experts" with whom they consult. The messages the alien beings bring are unsettling, to say the least! And throughout the story, the tension and sense of foreboding builds, but you can't put the book down! You've GOT to find out what's going to happen! You tell yourself it's just a work of fiction, but that doesn't untie the knot in your stomach or let the rest of your body or mind relax. The characters pull you into their world, and their emotions are contagious! You'll feel like you're on an emotional roller coaster ride, if you read this book. It's a gripping adventure into the unknown!

There is little to set this apart from the myriad “first contact” books. A third of the way through I got the sinking suspicion this was a “first act” which existed only to set up sequels.

To much hopeless despair.
It wasn’t a bad book, but just not my taste. The characters were all pretty pointless. There was very little any of them could do. The entire human race was just on for the ride. It was very depressing, and I don’t like depressing stories.
