A YALSA Amazing Audiobook, the reading of Terry Pratchett's novel tells the story of young Mau who returns to his island home after his initiation period to find the entire Nation wiped out by a tsunami. He meets a shipwrecked survivor of the storm, and they work together to form a new community comprised of refugees from the wave. Narrator Stephen Briggs' British accent serves the story well, as some of the characters seem to originate from somewhere in England. My only complaint is a lack of emotion in the reader's voice at key moments was disappointing for me. I think this is due in part to the narrator's British accent and matter-of-fact tone and the fact that am a very emotional person and reader.
