INTO THE TWILIGHT:
WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AND REMAIN HUMAN
by Michael Segedy
Narrated by: Ellen A. Connor
Production by: Michael Segedy
Thought-Provoking, Epic!
In 2030, Emma and Jacob were placed in suspended animation for two hundred years. Upon their awakening, they discover things for humankind have changed. In facing extinction, it was decided that changes to the human genome would be required for survival. It is upon their awakening, that Emma and Jacob must come to terms with the changes, and what it means to be human. The story is told from the viewpoint of Ike, the story narrator, the final historian of humanity. Recording humanity’s evolution is a personal journey that challenges the AI, Ike to consider not only his role in humanity but the passion/caring for humanity growing within him.
The voice actor, Ellen B. Connor gives a performance that leaves the listener completely engrossed in the story. Connor’s use of unique voices and the delivery with intonations perfect the narration and enrich the story. This is my first experience with Connor, and I have to say, it was not only enjoyable, but I cannot imagine any other narrator giving such an excellent performance in this book.
In this epically long audio, Segedy successfully challenges the listener to ponder the age-old question of time vs reality.
