À propos de cet audio
The men onboard HMS Terror have every expectation of finding the Northwest Passage. When the expedition's leader, Sir John Franklin, meets a terrible death, Captain Francis Crozier takes command and leads his surviving crewmen on a last, desperate attempt to flee south across the ice. But as another winter approaches, as scurvy and starvation grow more terrible, and as the Terror on the ice stalks them southward, Crozier and his men begin to fear there is no escape. A haunting, gripping story based on actual historical events, The Terror is a novel that will chill you to your core.

Histoire
When Lilith lyapo wakes from a centuries-long sleep, she finds herself aboard the vast spaceship of the Oankali. She discovers that the Oankali—a seemingly benevolent alien race—intervened in the fate of the humanity hundreds of years ago, saving everyone who survived a nuclear war from a dying, ruined Earth and then putting them into a deep sleep. After learning all they could about Earth and its beings, the Oankali healed the planet, cured cancer, increased human strength, and they now want Lilith to lead her people back to Earth—but salvation comes at a price.

Histoire
1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

It was no secret that journalist Jack Sparks had been researching the occult for his new book. No stranger to controversy, he'd already triggered a furious Twitter storm by mocking an exorcism he witnessed. Then there was that video: 40 seconds of chilling footage that Jack repeatedly claimed was not of his making, yet it was posted from his own YouTube account. Nobody knew what happened to Jack in the days that followed - until now.

Histoire
Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

Long but captivating

Simmons uses a non-linear storytelling technique - relating the desperate actions of the survivors during years trapped in ice, the hopeless attempts to escape, and simultaneous retrospective explorations of the planning and experiences of the men back in civilization and early in the expedition. The result is immersive and captivating.
Tom Sellwood does an above-average job conveying the mood intended by the text. He has a deep, smooth voice that expresses emotion marvellously. The suspense in the tale is exhibited by Sellwood with truly chilling effect. Some of the chosen accents are a little strong - rendering some segments difficult to follow - but the text is presented clearly and crisply. Sellwood gives a professional performance that is a joy to peruse..
Altogether, this is a well-crafted 9/10 horror/thriller. It's a dark, entertaining read - well worth a credit.

Chilling History

I enjoyed the spin on Inuit mythology and I found that including a monster breathed harrowing adventure into what otherwise would have been a tragic but boring story about a slow death.
Now if only I could figure out what the rat teeth were about…
A great way to pay homage to those lost.
