About this listen

When the last man on Earth reveals he has a nuclear weapon pointed at the tiny Martian colony, the colonists can only survive by working together. Jaye, a Trueborn Child of Mars, isn’t like her father, Merlin. Like all the Trueborn, she is cursed with perfect memory and deep sensitivity. But not even the knowledge that Merlin killed her mother can change the fact: They need each other for more than survival.

This is a very painful poignant book and not half bad. The performance given is excellent and just right for this book. The reader seems to connect with the central character so that you feel what she feels through the voice of the reader. However while the book isn’t half bad it is way far from perfect. There are two things I find irritating about it. There’s the usual quite unimaginative delivery of dialogue but we’ve been there before and the other i this. The central character is made up of fifty percent woman and fifty percent man which makes ehr human so where do all these difference come from? Why the constant insistance on ehr not being human? Considering the company she keeps is mainly human one wonders why she is so different unless there awas life on mars before the colony got there in which case merlin might well be the father of the central character but the mother must have then been Marsian or otherwise the story of how different she is including lacking a real sense of humour, doesn’t work. Also there are times when she sounds not far off a computer giving orders and specific facts which is kind of irritating. her story though is very real and very poignant as I have already stated. Overall, not a bad read.
