Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
It seems, at first glance, an impossible task--to create a coherent, involving audiobook out of the abridgment of the three novels in this fantasy trilogy (Powers That Be, Power Lines, and Power Play). But the talents of narrator Marina Sirtis and skillful abridgments do just that. Major Yanaba Maddock is sent to the icy colonized planet of Petaybee to recover from lung damage, the result of a terrorist attack. She finds herself befriending the citizens, who are remarkably in tune with their world, to protect her new home as she learns its remarkable secrets. With graceful, expressive narration, Sirtis creates vocal personalities that flow from a true understanding of the story. Accents convey the Celtic and Inuit heritages of the colonists; intonations capture differences in age and gender. This program truly creates a unique world, which the listener will leave only reluctantly. M.A.M. An AUDIOFILE Earphones Award winner (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Marina Sirtis is an excellent choice to read this trilogy.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Petaybee Trilogy: Powers That Be/Power Lines/Power Play (Audio Cassette)
I'm a great fan of McCaffery, and I like this series second behind the Dragonriders. Marina Sirtis reads it well, a bit hypnotically in spots. I can't tell if its abridged or not. These tapes are great in the car. They keep the kids quiet even on short runs.

This review is from: The Petaybee Trilogy: Powers That Be/Power Lines/Power Play (Audio Cassette)
I have all three of these books and can only hope that there will be more. Once again we are taken into yet another realm of fantasy by one of the genre's most skilled & talented authors.***I would like to restate that my review is for the books themselves and not the vocal tapes. Thank you.
