About this listen

A bonus never-before-released short story by best-selling author Isobelle Carmody.

Before the apocolyptic Great White - and the regressive theology that ruled the decimated population in its wake - the city of Uropa is a gleaming metropolis devoted wholly to materialistic consumption.

When Emma arrives to meet her childhood idol and continue her research into the emergence of psychic abilities, she must adapt quickly to conceal her personal interest in the subject and protect herself from the city's opportunistic residents.

Narrated by the author

I loved everything about this audio book!!
The more Obernewtyn-related novels the better, and this story just gives us a hint of the times before the Great White. I love that it wasn't too self-indulgent by Ms Carmody as well. So good!

Great back story to such an intriguing character!

I kept smiling though out this short story. Isobelle Carmody no only writes a great story but narrates wonderfully as well.

Lovely addition to the Obernewtyn world

Beautiful little short story giving some of Hannah's experience in the beforetime, made better by reading by Isobelle Carmody herself.

For lovers of the Obernewtyn series

A great short story for lovers of the Obernewtyn series (I'm a big fan of that series myself). Well read by the narrator (the author herself), and well written

Awesome

I wasn’t sure at first, the blurb just didn’t do it for me for some reason, but I love this series and have listened to it in full so many times that even if it wasn’t free I would have listened eventually. I am so glad I did tonight though! Great insight into Hannah, and the before-time, done in a way that surprised me (it was so separate at first, but tied it up so nicely in its way). Just a tiny taste of the past really, but it made my day, so I’d say it is worth it and recommend you give it a go 😊
