Publisher's Summary

For millennia, the planet Harmony has been protected by the Oversoul, an artificial intelligence programmed to prevent thoughts of war and conquest from threatening the fragile remnant of Earth's peoples. But as the Oversoul's systems have begun to fail, a great warrior has arisen to challenge its bans. Using forbidden technology, the ambitious and ruthless General Moozh has won control of an army and is aiming it at the city of Basilica.

Basilica remains in turmoil. Wetchik and his sons are not strong enough to stop an army. As Lady Rasa, through whom the Oversoul speaks, attempts to defeat Moozh through intrigue, Nafai and his family prepare to voyage to the stars in search of the planet called Earth.

The narrator got me through a bad migraine attack

If it weren’t for the narrators voice I would have dropped this book half an hour in. I only kept listening because my migraine episode was so bad his voice was soothing to listen to and was helping me keep my mind off the pain, for 10 hours. I have a vague idea of what the books actually about. The author definitely was banging on for no good reason. The length could have been shortened easily by half.
Perhaps I need to listen to one of the authors other books, when I don’t have a migraine attack going on. I won’t be paying for one and it won’t be a long one!
Glad I didn’t pay for this one! Sorry dude/ dudette orson card whatever you go by.
