À propos de ce contenu audio

As the acclaimed Patternist science-fiction series begins, two immortals meet in the long-ago past - and mankind's destiny is changed forever. 

For a thousand years, Doro has cultivated a small African village, carefully breeding its people in search of seemingly unattainable perfection. He survives through the centuries by stealing the bodies of others, a technique he has so thoroughly mastered that nothing on Earth can kill him. But when a gang of New World slavers destroys his village, ruining his grand experiment, Doro is forced to go west and begin anew. He meets Anyanwu, a centuries-old woman whose means of immortality are as kind as his are cruel. She is a shape-shifter, capable of healing with a kiss, and she recognizes Doro as a tyrant. Though many humans have tried to kill them, these two demi-gods have never before met a rival. Now they begin a struggle that will last centuries and permanently alter the nature of humanity.

“Richly evocative...particularly striking.” (Chicago Tribune)

It was really a great read even if It wasn’t a easy one. Sometimes, Doro was so infuriating, he couldn’t understand simple things so essential for the human kind ! I loved the themes and the way they were evoqued. This story was trully wonderfull and powerfull...
I think it will stick with me a long time !

So Good !
