Simul

Momenticon, Book 2

By: Andrew Caldecott

Narrated by: John Hastings

From Andrew Caldecott, the bestselling author of ROTHERWEIRD, comes the jaw-dropping conclusion of the MOMENTICON duology - an epic adventure like no other!

'Remember Simul' - the last words of a dying man, and the key to mankind's survival.

Words which take Morag, Fogg and their friends on a wild ride through caverns and over mountains, into old paintings, to a university unlike any other and up the lethal Tower of No Return. A ride where mythical beasts, legendary monster-hunters and a corrupt establishment lie in wait . . . while the weather-watchers look on and bide their time.

It's a race against extinction too . . . for nature herself is bent on vengeance.

Critic reviews

Special and dangerous properties . . . opens a series of trap-doors in the readers' imagination

Whimsical science fiction at its finest. A satisfying jigsaw where the bigger picture doesn't become visible until the final piece is slotted into place

It feels non-stop: constantly splitting the protagonists up and bringing them together again, delivering a series of growing climaxes and then leaving readers hanging for a concluding second volume

One of the most unique books I've read . . . a compelling and enrapturing story that captures the reader from the first page to the last

Has the arbitrary and rather hallucinogenic atmosphere of the Alice in Wonderland books

A book that is unlike anything else you have read

Caldecott successfully creates an equally engaging and original a world as Rotherweird. Highly recommended.

Momenticon is a perplexing and brilliant story full of literary and artistic rabbit holes and quirky characters. It ends on a cliffhanger and I want to continue this journey for sure.

I'm not sure there are enough words that can accurately describe this weird, brilliant, funny and adventurous read.

A rip-roaring adventure through a brilliantly weird and wonderful dystopian landscape. I can't imagine what'll happen in the next book but I can't wait to find out!

Loved it

This was so creative, timely, beautifully written, thoughtful and with such effective narration! Looking forward to more by Andrew Caldecott.

Thoroughly enjoyable, listen!

I love this author and his perky characters. Narration is excellent. If you haven’t read his first series, I highly recommend it as well.
