Podiobooks.com in association with Dragonhearth Productions, presents New York Times Best Selling Author Tracy Hickman's cautionary tale... The Immortals.
The future story of United States Internment Camps ... of the dreams of the pre-deceased ... and of triumph beyond oblivion.
It's 2020, and an attempted cure for AIDS has mutated into a deadlier disease, V-CIDS. The U.S., under martial law, has set up "quarantine centers" in the Southwest. Searching for his gay son, Jon, media mogul Michael Barris smuggles himself into one of centers only to discover that it and the other centers are actually extermination camps. With a strange assortment of allies, including the leader of the camp's gay barracks, an army officer and a local cowboy, Barris precipitates an inmates' rebellion that promises the unraveling of the death-camp system and the overthrow of the government that established it.
As read and performed by Tracy and Laura Hickman. Published as a podiobook during the ten-year anniversary of its first printing.

I had a good time with this story. Audio quality was good; narration was good. Sound effects were sometimes a bit distracting, but mostly contributed well to the story-telling. An interesting and compelling cast of characters. A unique take on the dystopian theme. Believably grim. Well worth a listen. Cheers!
very good ! loved the production

a little slow at the beginning, but stay on it, it is worth every minute. kudos to the editing, sound effects and background music really adds to the reading. But the best thing is the message and the idea.
good storyline

I've come back to this story a few times now. It never loses it's emotional punch. For me, to date, it's the best audio production I've had the pleasure to hear. While I always want the story to end differently, I recognize that it is beautifully written, perfectly presented and ...

Although not written that long ago, it turned out to be a look into our future. The story almost mirrors what is happening currently. March 2020, our current pandemic. Let’s hope the other elements of the story don’t come to past. Well written with superb narrative.
