Resumen del Editor

Beware of creating your worst enemy.

All Joe Colsco wanted out of life was a reasonably interesting job supporting a quiet, comfortable suburban lifestyle, eventually a small family, and time to pursue hobbies. Instead, a freak accident casts him naked onto a beach of another planet inhabited by humans with technology circa 1700. In time, Joe, now known as Yozef Kolsko, makes the difficult acceptance of a new life, has a respectable position in his new society, and is married with a child on the way. But all is not rosy. He has become embroiled in a struggle beyond any dream he could have had - or any nightmare.

The Narthani are a militant society intent on subjugating the Caedelli, the people he's come to identify with. Despite Yozef's hope to focus his life on transferring scientific knowledge and supporting a quiet life, he finds his life's direction moving beyond his control. As his actions and ideas become more important in resisting the Narthani, he reluctantly finds himself dragged into leadership roles he doesn't believe himself qualified - including efforts to unite the Caedelli clans.

The transformation of Joseph Colsco to Yozef Kolsko is about to take another step. Unwittingly, the Narthani themselves are creating an opponent unlike any they have ever faced, an enemy beyond their conceptions.

A third winner in this series

This book is an easy reading twist on a "first-contact" book strangely mashed together with a time traveling flavor.

Narration is good, character development happens, and the plot continually expands so you don't foresee the plot changes too easily.

just fun Sci-Fi

What made the experience of listening to Heavier Than a Mountain the most enjoyable?

Johnathan Davis

What was one of the most memorable moments of Heavier Than a Mountain?

many the topography maps in development for one

What does Jonathan Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

so don't even think of replacing Johnathon

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes and no

Any additional comments?

it's bogging down a bit

The author has slowed the pace in a manner that feels forced and takes away from the enjoyment. Still very enjoyable and I'm still looking forward to the next book.

The series is great, can't wait for next book

I really like the this series. The story, author and narrator have been wonderful and make a good team.I like that it doesn't get old, I've listened to it multiple times and probably will again before the next book is out. I just hope the next one comes soon. It sucks we have to wait, please get it to us soonest!

Great series

I am really loving this series, call it sci-fi, fantasy ...whatever, even with all the technical military and chemical stuff it is a great story. Hope next book is available soon.

Uugghhh !

I hate cliffhangers !!! Good thing this is one great series !!! Excellent narrator as well !! When does the 4th book show up here on audible??

Keeps on making more interesting stories

Great continuation of this series. I am already looking forward to the next book. To bad it will Likely take anther year to get the next one in print.

A continuing saga...

This third book in Destiny's Crucible proves to keep the story from mundane and actually keeps you wanting to know what is Yosef doing now! This is a great story and shows how Yosef has transformed himself from a lonely misfit to a most enterprising businessman, family man and now military strategist/tactitian. A story brilliantly told.
The narrator does a brilliant job. He enables you to not only know the story but feel what is going on....one can only picture it too well.
Kudos to a great story and to a great narration. Look forward to Book 4 of Destiny's Crucible.

Too short

Good story.....unusual.....could use some more sci fi stuff. Enjoyed it.....will get the next when it comes out.

need more

I just need to read the next book. really good, and I can't wait for more.
