It's the dawning of a new age for mankind when the Catteni descend to Earth and easily overcome the Earth's population. Thousands are herded onto slave ships headed for the intergalactic auction block.

Kris Bjornsen is captured in Denver on her way to her college classes and wakes up on the primitive planet Barevi. Courageous and resourceful, she manages a single-woman escape from the Catteni and is living in the wilds of the planet when she comes to the aid of a Catteni soldier pursued by his own ranks.

Recaptured together, they join forces with other slaves to outwit their captors and a hostile planetary environment.

Listeners will delight in this "against-the-odds" story of survival, ingenuity and romance.

As her audience has come to expect of McCaffrey, she delivers a rich and intricate science-fiction adventure in Freedom's Landing, sure to win over even more listeners and add to her legions of fans.

The narrator did a good job bringing the book to life. I am a life time fan of Anne McCaffrey and the audio version is refreshing. I did give four stars for the narrator because the exciting scenes were....a little off.

Excellent narrator

Was so pleased to find in audiobook this series that I 've enjoyed and reread. I was able to lose myself in the story but I found the narrator's voice distracting and irritating. Her voice for Chuck made him sound small and annoying rather than the grand man that he is. The different ethnic voices distracted from the story, rather than adding to it. It was a good thing that I really enjoy the story or I might not have finished the book.

Another narrator please

Enjoyed overall! However, some confusion in storyline, like Mitford not trusting Zinal on first night drop (didn't say you could go buddy"), then seemingly okay with it when more help requested ( "right on!").

Stupid autocorrect!! Zinal, Kris & Mitford.

A nice bit of space opera with humans as refugees from their own world and their conquers. It has a bit of human alien romance, but aside from that it is solid.

I love this author and her science fiction. I was in Jr high when I first read it. I have read all of the series.She had such an imagination for that time period. Andre Norton is another favorite I recommend

My favorite author, with another good series, and another set of worlds! Rest in Peace, Ms Anne.

A good listen

What do you do when your pleasant life on earth is gone? How do you know who to trust? Many adventures, interesting aliens and some annoying/scary types make this an an intriguing tale. Plus, I love a good story where the heroine is tall.

One of my favorites!

Any additional comments?

The producers decision to make the "thoughts" of the characters in an echoing voice is very odd and off putting.

I like this series
