The New World: Prequel to the Chaos Walking Trilogy

Auteur(s): Patrick Ness
Narrateur(s): Angela Dawe

Description

The New World is a prequel to the award-winning Chaos Walking trilogy, setting the stage for the world we discover in The Knife of Never Letting Go, The Ask and the Answer, and Monsters of Men. The story was written while the author served as writer in residence for the Booktrust an independent UK-wide charity dedicated to encouraging people of all ages and cultures to enjoy books.

The New World tells of Viola's journey to the New World, brilliantly capturing the hope and fear of settlers in search of a new life. Patrick Ness says that he wrote it "as a huge and deeply-felt thank you to readers. I've had so many questions about Viola and what her life was like before that I couldn't resist the opportunity to reveal just a little bit extra. I knew these things - they're vitally important to her as a character, even if they're not directly in the novels - so it felt like a secret trip I could take readers on. The challenge was to make it work on its own, too, so anyone could read it. That was really, really good fun, and I hope the final result is an exciting one."

The New World can be listened to before or after the trilogy – and some may choose to do both. The story works as a standalone piece, but listeners already familiar with The Knife of Never Letting Go will learn more about Viola’s life and the events leading to her arrival and first encounter with Todd, while newcomers to the trilogy will discover a white-knuckle ride of an introduction to the series. Whether you're a new or faithful listener, though, it's a welcome chance to immerse yourself in the world of Chaos Walking.

Awesome entertainment value!

Awesome story and performance! Listening to this free audiobook reading while I read along in the free Kindle book really brought the story to life for me! I can't wait to read/hear the rest of the story!

Nice little taste.

I just finished reading book 1 and saw this. A great little story to help shed light on how we got to New World. if you are reading the series, this should be part of your plan.

Good read.

This prequel is great, very interesting setting.I enjoyed it more than the first book in the series. The accents were a little distracting though.
