Synopsis

“Hugh’s imaginative worlds and tales within them never fail to entertain!”—Andy Weir, New York Times bestselling author of Project Hail MaryThe first original novel from author Hugh Howey in six years, Across the Sand takes us back to the world of Sand, to a far future many generations after a disaster has destroyed civilization as we know it, where four siblings struggle to build their futures amid the harsh wastes of endless desert.The old world is buried. A new one has been forged atop the shifting dunes, a land of howling wind and infernal sand.In this barren home, siblings Conner, Rob, Palmer and Violet daily carve out a future. They live in the shadow of their father and oldest sister, Vic, two of the greatest sand divers ever to comb the desert’s depths. But these branches of their family tree are long gone, disappeared into the wastes beyond, leaving the younger siblings scratching in the dust, hopeful for a better life. On the other side of No Man’s Land, Anya was born beside the abundant mines knowing her prospects would be to marry, have a family, and work in ore, in service to the Empire of the East. But when an atomic bomb delivered by a stranger destroys most of her town—murdering all her friends and community—she follows her father to a strange land of dunes to bring vengeance to their enemies.Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

4 Stars for Across the Sand: The Sand Chronicles, Book 2 (audiobook) by Hugh Howey read by Jeremy Arthur. I’m sure glad I read Sand first. I would have been lost in this book if I hadn’t.

Goodreads review by Shaline on June 29, 2022

I read "Across the Sand" not knowing that it was a sequel until the afterword. While the book worked very well as a standalone novel, I think I would have had a deeper experience if I'd read the first novel, Sand. I plan to read Sand next. I picked this novel up because I love apocalypse stories, an......more

QUICK TAKE: I haven't read SAND in a few years, so I struggled to pick up the hanging story threads here, though was still able to enjoy the sequel as a standalone. Fans of the first book or Howey in general will find a lot to like here. Very solid.......more

TW/CW: Violence RATING: 3/5 REVIEW: I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review. Across the Sand is the sequel to Sand, which I read a couple of years ago. I would suggest that if you haven’t read it, you might read that first and then read that one. Ev......more
