Summary

Taimin and Selena must discover the truth about their world - before it’s too late.

In a world of secrets, Taimin and Selena are desperate for answers. They need to discover the truth about their origins and the firewall that borders the wasteland. If they don’t find the hidden path they seek, the citizens of Zorn will die. 

As they make the perilous journey to the distant firewall, Taimin and Selena are joined by three companions: a young healer, a weapons trader, and an old rover. Together the five are in constant danger, unable to rely on Selena’s powers as she has lost the ability to farcast - and she doesn’t know how to get it back. 

Now Taimin finds himself hunted by a new enemy - a strange creature on a bloodthirsty quest of his own. Taimin and Selena get ever closer to the answers that are essential to their survival. But will they learn the truth in time to save themselves?

Critic reviews

“Master narrator Simon Vance performs the second entry in The Firewall Trilogy.... Vance gives each character a subtly different voice—except for the monstrous creatures Taimin crosses path with. His narration will engage new and returning listeners alike as the plot races toward revealing the answers Taimin seeks. Vance elevates the story with a captivating performance that features heart and humor amid the darkness.” - Audiofile Magazine

Disappointed

Possible this story could have been told in half the pages. It seemed to take a long time to say little. Far more happened in the first book.
