Book description
The Last Green Tree Review
Jim Grimsley's The Last Green Tree isn't just another sci-fi audiobook - it's a masterclass in world-building and emotional depth that will grip you from the first chapter and refuse to let go. As the third installment in the Irion/Hormling series, this audiobook elevates everything we loved about The Ordinary and cranks the stakes up to eleven.
Set three centuries after the Conquest, the story unfolds in a universe where the Great Mage rules through cybernetic control and interplanetary Gates, all maintained by the mystical songs of priestly choirs. But when an alien force rises on the planet Aramen - one that challenges the very fabric of this empire with its own eerie music - the balance of power shatters. With the Anilyn Gate sealed and armies faltering, survival hinges on a damaged child whose untapped abilities might be humanity's last hope.
Grimsley's prose is as lyrical as it is urgent, and the audiobook format brings his rich, immersive world to life in ways that make you feel every pulse of magic and menace. Fans of Ursula K. Le Guin and Samuel R. Delany will find themselves right at home in Grimsley's complex, morally nuanced universe. This isn't background listening - it's the kind of story that demands your full attention, rewarding you with a deeply satisfying blend of science fiction, fantasy, and raw human emotion.
If you've been searching for an audiobook that combines epic scope with intimate character development, The Last Green Tree is your answer. Don't just listen - experience it.
