Story
This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

When a renegade thief and a genetically enhanced mercenary collide, space gets a whole lot hotter!

Her only chance is a deal with the syndicate's most ruthless enforcer, a wolfish mountain of genetically-modified muscle named Davien. The thought makes her body tingle with dread - or is it heat?

Hank Jensen doesn't believe in monsters - not the kind Stephen King writes about at any rate. Hank is one of New York's best criminal profilers, and he loves his job. But when he meets the Bristol Butchers, all that changes. They are a pair of psychopaths - cannibals. He chases them in spite of the disabling curse they cast on him, in spite of their threats to his family, and when he catches up to them, his horror begins. They claim to be gods - immortal, omnipotent - and they change into monsters before his eyes.

But escape is a distant dream on this nightmare planet.

Now, assuming one can afford the expensive procedure, a person's consciousness can be stored in a cortical stack at the base of the brain and easily downloaded into a new body (or "sleeve") making death nothing more than a minor blip on a screen.

Story
Udo's biggest problem isn't being a digger (that's low class), or staying drunk (that's damn expensive), or avoiding the Dwergaz (they're monsters), or even pissing off the supposed Gods. It's that his reality...well, it isn't what he thought. And now, he can't even afford to drink because his so-called friend Nicz is cutting into his business, digging up tin, iron, and copper. So Udo forms a new plan: clay. After all, clay jars are used to store everything: meat, herbs, and, his personal favorite, ale.

Clumsy, slow and desperately needing an epilogue
First, a random question: Audible lists one of the genres as “solar system.” Which means …?
I loved the concept of a space exploring scientist getting marooned on a savage planet. The first ten minutes was exciting. Unfortunately, it’s then five hours of Viking living, with an annoying addition of second person narration for parts (you walk into the tent, you wonder if they’re brother and sister…).
Things pick up a little with the escape from the savages and the plot thickening as Karl seeks an escape from the planet. Unfortunately, the final two hours drifts back into tedium and then leaves us with a rather open ended finish.
Random thoughts: The science is of the interesting, but not very plausible, variety; AIs and nanobots facilitate things like healing and getting past language barriers. The story is told using a very small cast and women seem to only exist to be sexual or romantic interests. There’s limited profanity and one, on the tame end, sex scene. I predicted most of the story and the unexpected parts weren’t very engaging.
