Humanity survived. Barely, and thanks to networks of gigantic tower systems created to surround small villages with a protective barrier of lethal energy. It kept everything out...and everyone in. Sixteen years have passed, and a girl born the night the world fell apart learns that she has a strange talent. The towers can speak, and she is the only one who can hear them.

Doesn’t stand alone on its own
Revisado: 03-24-25
It was a decent story but ends before anything is resolved. It’s the first in a series but it’s not a stand alone story and you have to get the next couple books for it to make sense. If your looking for a series it may be worth getting but as a one book story it’s not worth it.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 87
1803. The Napoleonic Wars. A Royal Navy warship is ordered to pursue an enemy frigate to the icy waters far south in the Indian Ocean. There, it must capture the enemy ship and retrieve a mysterious sea chest, contents unknown, failure not permitted. For the determined young captain and his eager crew, this already dangerous mission turns into a battle with a mysterious vessel that appears not in the sea, but unbelievably, impossibly, in the sky above. But nothing could prepare the crew for what lay beyond the 50th latitude of south.

Average listen
Revisado: 03-07-24
Story is ok. Not great, not terrible. Ending was rushed and disappointing. If you’re looking for a short listen and have free credits it’s ok.

Not Great.....Not Terrible
Revisado: 02-25-20
Wanderers is a decent story, not great but not terrible. It doesn’t compare to books like The Stand or Swan Song but few novels do. I think it is a couple hundred pages to long. 32 plus hours is ALOT. The story kind of spins and spins heading towards the ending. The author could’ve cut a couple of hours off of the total time by stopping with all of the political BS. His political views get very tiresome and have no impact on the story whatsoever. If Wendig would leave out his exhausting Political views the story would be much more enjoyable. As the book progressed it became very redundant and pointless.
The narrators (one man, one women) were outstanding. Possibly two of the best that I have listens to over the last couple of years. They really kept my attention and we’re probably a big reason why I kept listening.
If you like post apocalyptic type novels there are several I would suggest before Wanderers. If you have already read or listened to the biggies and have a lot of free time and don’t mind pointless PC garbage give it a try.
