Resumen del Editor

David Strorm's father doesn't approve of Angus Morton's unusually large horses, calling them blasphemies against nature. Little does he realise that his own son, his niece Rosalind and their friends have their own secret aberration that would label them as mutants. But as David and Rosalind grow older it becomes more difficult to conceal their differences from the village elders. Soon they face a choice: wait for eventual discovery or flee to the terrifying and mutable Badland....

About the author: John Wyndham Parkes Lucas Benyon Harris was born in 1903, the son of a barrister. He tried a number of careers including farming, law, commercial art and advertising, and started writing short stories, intended for sale, in 1925. From 1930 to 1939 he wrote stories of various kinds under different names, almost exclusively for American publications, while also writing detective novels. During the war he was in the Civil Service and then the Army. In 1946 he went back to writing stories for publication in the USA and decided to try a modified form of science fiction, a form he called 'logical fantasy'.

Performance was amazing

Noah Reid did such an amazing job with this book. I’ve listened to many audio books and his reading is incomparable. His voice, his tone, and the different characters are flawless.

All around brilliant

I cannot believe this wasn’t required reading through my HS years, and that I hadn’t heard of it until now. This is such a masterful piece of writing by John Wyndham. Further praise to Noah Reid’s brilliant interpretation of characters, his inflection giving way to each person within the story without being a distraction. His smooth voice easily guided this story though my mind, painting a vivid picture for me to ponder for some time to come.
Highly recommend & hope to hear Noah do more projects like this!

Story was Amazing

I love this story from start to finish. I love how it progressed and we followed the development, struggles and events endured by the protagonist and the other characters from beginning to end. I think this story is way ahead of its time. very impressive. I also really loved how the narrator was able to individually craft out each character distinctively with his voice.

Perfect story perfectly told

Perfect story perfectly told, a new favourite! I’m not usually big in fiction but this was recommended to me by a friend and it was just a delight to listen to. Makes one pause and reflect on what “perfection” really is and just how humanity treats those who deviate from whatever “normal” is.

Why had I never heard of this book

This should be mandatory reading in high school. Great performance to compliment a great piece of post apocalyptic literature.

wonderful

The novel was an intriguing mix of the Giver, and so many ideas I can scarcely interpret. listen, and enjoy.

Years ahead of its time

Although I had read Day of the Triffids, and so was familiar with the author, I didn't know what to expect. Was pleasantly surprised by this truly timeless story.

Alright story with excellent narration

This story was alright but I’m not a sci-fi person. I picked it up purely because Noah Reid was the narrator and he did not disappoint. I would listen to this man read the phone book. I hope he plans for more audio books in the future.
