About this listen

In 1984, a doomsday vault was constructed on a remote island in the Arctic Ocean. Its purpose was to preserve Earth's genetic history in the event of a global catastrophe. Now, decades later, a second vault has been uncovered, this one resting where no one ever expected. And the problem is it's not ours.

Yet even more curious than the vault itself is what lies inside. Seeds. Millions of seeds. Each with a genetic embryo untouched and perfectly preserved. Waiting.

No one knows who built it. Or when. What we have managed to figure out is that whoever it was traveled an immense distance. For the sole purpose of hiding their genetic blueprints on Earth. But why?

Now, a small group of marine biologists and navy investigators have been assigned to find out. Before anyone else does. But Alison Shaw and John Clay are not prepared for what they are about to uncover. Beginning with the truth behind our own evolution.

Good continuation

Although I enjoyed the continuation of the story and characters I felt it didn’t really go far enough and just put building blocks in place to launch into the next book which I will definitely be doing . The narration as ever was superb

The way the author captured humanities insignificance in the bigger picture

Finally a novel that shows how humans are able only to see the small picture while causing so much destruction for their greed.

Thoroughly enjoying this series and literally listening to them one after another. Love the characters, the animals and hints of Sci Fi.

Already looking forward to starting the next!
