Resumen del Editor

Sandstorm: Publisher's Pack contains books one and two of the Sandstorm series.

Sandstorm, book one:

Something is hunting the inhabitants of Ravar.

For three generations, the colonists on Ravar have been stranded on a harsh planet, forced to survive in a desert environment where only the scrappiest animals and the heartiest plants survive. Most live without the foolish hope that Earth's supply ships will ever grace the skies again. Trapped in a sandstorm, Neena Xylance struggles to make her way back to her colony. What she doesn't know is that she isn't alone, and what she finds might destroy the last of the fragile life on her planet.

Windswept, book two:

A colony of secrets and lies …

Forced into a Red Rock jail, Neena and Kai fight for their freedom and their lives, while Darius puts together the pieces of a terrifying discovery. Will they find out the truth before it's too late? Or is the colony's fate sealed?

fantastic

thoroughly enjoyed these stories. I am eager to get the remaining books in this series to see how it ends.

Mom; Mom is liked it!

I couldn't stop! Here again the story line is very intriguing! I'm going to get the next 2 books to finish it up. Can't wait. I hope it has a good ending!

Great world-building and excellent twists

As expected, Scott Brick does a great job pulling you in to the author's world and bringing the characters to life. The premise around this book revolves around life on post-apocalyptic planet, and a horrible menace that threatens the colonists. The main character Neena and her family are likeable and relatable, so that you can almost picture yourself in the barren desert alongside them.

T.W. Piperbrook does a great job at setting the stage in these first two books. Getting them in a publisher's pack is a bonus. I'll definitely be picking up the next in series.

Whaaaaat!?

Great cliffhanger. Engaging characters, appropriately flawed. Good plot movement. Didn't make me have to remember a bunch of new words or names for the setting - much appreciated. I am looking forward to book 3.

Loved the characters

The story was gripping, with colorful characters and an interesting planet, enjoyed listening to the story.

Fast paced action

My boyfriend and I both liked this and plan to use my next credit for the next book. It got a little confusing at times but never boring.

Frustrating But With Great Narrator

Frustrating story. Good bones, good ideas, good use of language and vocabulary. Good editing. But such frustrating flow. Maybe meant as in-depth look at bullying and adversity compounded by mismanagement by authority figures? Because that shone through more than the fiction/sci-fi of the story. I’m writing this at 80% of the story of this book, so take it with a grain of salt, maybe there’s some monumental payoff that comes in at the end to make up for it…? I suppose I have a personal issue with manufactured drama overshadowing actual story and plot. If you don’t have issues with that, and enjoy that kind of a rollercoaster ride, then have at it, this will be a fun book. Some readers may compare it to Dune. I disagree. It may be a desert planet with monsters but that’s where the comparison ends. This is geared towards a YA crowd, while in my opinion, the Dune series is more complex, more of an all ages kind of thing.

Just like Dune in the early years

I am surprised that this is exactly like Dune. think I should just stick with reading Dune

Great Dystopian Series!

T.W. Piperbrook does it again! Another great Dystopian Series. I absolutely loved The Last Survivors series and The Ruins series. Sandstorm is starting out great and I truly think this will be his best work yet! At least that I've listened to so far lol. Scott Brick narrates and does a fantastic job as always! Can't wait for the rest of this series!

Great Story

Great story, riveting action, quite a roller coaster of a tale from many perspectives.
