À propos de cet audio

Will she make it over the wall?

Barsicon is a war-torn, divided world. A towering wall separates Light City from the Darkness, metropolis from countryside, rich from poor, saints from sinners.

There are seven steps at the wall's main gates. Once a week, a brave Light Seeker emerges from the Darkness and attempts to scale these seven levels as they endure formidable tests of physical, mental, and spiritual strength. Success means a better life for them and their family in glorious Light City. Failure equals instant death.

Sixteen-year-old Seneca Ellis-Brant is the youngest Light Seeker in Barsicon history. On Saturday night, she will put a lifetime of training to the penultimate test. But is life on the other side of the wall worth fighting for? Seneca hopes she lives long enough to find out.

In Conquering the Divide, local author Angela Stever invites us into a high-stakes world where the weight of a kingdom’s future rests on the shoulders of a family bound by prophecy. It is a story rooted in the human experience of striving toward a goal and the grueling recovery that follows in the wake of tragedy.
Stever is an excellent narrator; her voice is confident and engaging, making the book a very quick and immersive read. She has a gift for setting a scene and drawing the reader into the emotional atmosphere of her world. The central premise is genuinely interesting, and I found myself rooted in the journey of the characters as they navigated the complexities of their fates.
If I had one wish for this book, it would be for more of it. Stever has built a world so intriguing that I found myself wanting to explore every corner. While the plot moves at a brisk pace, there were moments where I felt certain storylines and character perspectives were just beginning to bloom. I would have happily sat through another fifty chapters to see more points of view fleshed out and to fill in the gaps of this fascinating kingdom.
Ultimately, Conquering the Divide is a testament to Stever’s talent for storytelling. It’s a concise, spirited adventure that leaves you wanting just a little bit more time with its characters. I look forward to seeing where her narration takes us next.
