Resumen del Editor

New, from the best-selling author of The Spaceship Next Door!

"I thought I'd miss the world." - Adam the Immortal

Adam is on vacation in an island paradise, with nothing to do and plenty of time to do nothing.

It's exactly what he needed: beautiful weather, beautiful girlfriend, plenty of books to read, and alcohol to drink. Most importantly, either nobody on the island knows who he is, or, nobody cares.

"This probably sounds boring, and maybe it is. It's possible I have no compass to help determine boring, or maybe I have a different threshold than most people. From my perspective, though, the vast majority of human history has been boring, by which I mean nothing happened, and sure, that can be dull. On the other hand, nothing happening includes nobody trying to kill anybody, and specifically, nobody trying to kill me. That's the kind of boring a guy can get behind." - Adam the Immortal

Nothing last forever, though, and that includes the opportunity to do nothing. One day, unwelcome visitors arrive in secret, with impossible knowledge of impossible events, and then the impossible things arrive: a new species.

It's all impossible, especially to the immortal man who thought he'd seen all there was to see in the world. Now, Adam is going to have to figure out what's happening and make things right before he and everyone he loves ends up dead in the hot sun of this island paradise.

Immortal and the Island of Impossible Things is the fourth book in Gene Doucette's acclaimed Immortal novel series, and the start of a new adventure for Adam the Immortal man! Catch up on all that's come before with Immortal, Hellenic Immortal, Immortal at the Edge of the World, and the novellas in The Immortal Chronicles and Immortal Stories: Eve.

Best series I’ve tripped over . . . Ever!

One of my friends saw me out running the other day, laughing, and with a huge smile on my face. That because I found this series just a little while ago as a distraction to help me through my runs and long walks. I don’t like running so anything to push me through is a bonus. This series takes the odd topic of immortality and turns it into a comic adventure, almost a comedian’s stage sets over various episodes, of dalliances over a lifetime, or rather time itself. It is brilliantly performed too with nuanced personalities showing up here and there, asking questions of the listener, dismissing incredulity, imprinting the various “beasts” as “why nots” and somehow we believe the author is tapped in to the unknown. We soon believe and are laughing about Buster, the doglike dragon or some foot tall afreet or however the hell you spell that, belching and . . . well, doing all the things no one in their right, sober mind would ever think of doing. This other world of Mr. Doucette’s is roundly written, brought to hysterical reality and then given harmony by Mr. Carlson, and while I only recently discovered these two, author and narrator, it is the reason we should roll the dice on authors and plot lines, and go enjoy the run, while laughing our butts off!

Sucked from one book to the next!

Can hardly put it down / turn the audiobook off! Sleep and church are about the only times I’m not following Adam’s adventures, even though this is my second time listening to the series. PLEASE, Gene - hurry and write more sequels!

This books needs a sequel!

Wonderful series, but book 4 requires a sequel. Seems to stop in the middle of a critical scene. Still will recommend entire series.

Fun story

Before I selected this series, I read some reviews that provided negative feedback. I was not sure about the selection but since audio allows you to return it, I have it a try. I have not been able to pull away from the series. I love it, it is funny and light and has a great spin to the immortal and fantasy aspect. Some stories are a little far fetched but still entertaining. I do not always need logic, thank goodness.

I've enjoyed the Immortal series and this one...

I've enjoyed the Immortal series and this one is no exception. Lots of creatively written characters. Gene Doucette really takes you for a fun ride with his main character Adam, the 60,000 year old man.

Really becoming a fan of Gene Doucette's work

And preferable to Harry Potter-ish works on magical creatures and such. There are only a handful of works that i'd go back to for a second listen - this series is one of them. I enjoy the author's sense of humor and the narrator really pulls it all together. Nicely done
