About this listen

Exiled by a tyrant. Haunted by a love he can’t forget.

England, 1887. When seventeen-year-old Sebastian Brigandshaw is cast out by his cruel father, he leaves behind everything he knows—including Emily, the girl he was forbidden to love.

Forced to seek a new life in Africa, Sebastian is thrust into a raw, unforgiving land on the brink of war. There, he forges an unlikely bond with a Boer hunter and begins to rebuild from the ruins of his past.
But the past has claws.

A devastating secret about Emily pulls Sebastian back across continents—and into a reckoning more dangerous than he ever imagined.

Echoes from the Past is a sweeping saga of love, betrayal, and survival under an infinite sky.

Start the unforgettable journey today.

Beautifully written book about the history of South Africa. It made me wish I could go back there! 

Wonderful book!

The story is good and I appreciated the balanced view about the Boer War. Unfortunately the pronunciation of ‘The Taal’ and later called Afrikaans words and surnames is disappointing and takes away from the listening experience.

I really enjoyed this book. We don’t always realize just how bad people can behave against others. Greed is always that way.

Mesmerizing

I enjoyed the fully developed characters and following their stories over time. Mankind doesn’t seem to learn from past mistakes.

Moving historical story

I found this book tedious- interesting history for sure but I kept losing attention while listening. I did complete about 3/4 of it before moving on to a different book.

Tedious
