“That sweltering, pouring jungle was a far cry from my other formative literary experience in the cozy children’s section of the Santa Monica Public Library. There, the hardest decision wasn’t who I had to vote off the island, but how I could possibly check out only two books at a time.”

In the far future, one young woman finds herself torn between two loves—and two sides of a rebellion boiling under the surface—in the “luminous” (People) first novel of a sweeping dystopian romance series.

Hear why “Michael Sheen’s narration is truly a work of art.” (Booklist) and what special content listeners will hear at the end of this latest volume of The Book of Dust trilogy.
