À propos de cet audio

 The noise throws us from our beds. It’s too huge to be heard; it bombards us. It’s the sound of the end of the world. Leira is starting her initiation as a priestess when her world is turned upside down. A violent earthquake leaves her home in pieces. And the goddess hasn’t finished with the island yet. With her family, Leira flees across the sea to Crete, expecting sanctuary. But a volcanic eruption and tsunami throw the entire world into darkness. In the resulting chaos, Leira finds her noble-born privilege reduced to nothing; alone with her injured mother and elderly nurse, Leira’s only hope of survival is her own resourcefulness. A thrilling Bronze Age survival story from the award-winning author of Dragonfly Song.©2018 Wendy Orr (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Fiction Fiction historique Littérature Catastrophe naturelle

Ce que les critiques en disent

'The sections in verse are particularly descriptive and lyrical. This reinforces the Greek atmosphere ... a beautiful and powerful story. I loved it!' (Jill Jemmett)
'Some chapters written in verse make the more emotional plot lines sing. An eye-opening look at how difficult it is when one's status changes in life, and how attitude can shape outcome ... Beautiful writing and a fast-moving plot will give young historical fiction fans much to love.' (School Library Journal)
