Download Hominids: The Neanderthal Parallax, Book 1 AudioBook Free
Hominids examines two unique species of people. We are one of those species; the other is the Neanderthals of the parallel world where they become the dominant intelligence. The Neanderthal civilization has already reached heights of culture and science comparable to our very own, but with radically different history, society, and philosophy. Ponter Boddit, a Neanderthal physicist, accidentally pierces the barrier between the worlds and it is used in our universe. Almost immediately named a Neanderthal, but only much later as a scientist, he's quarantined and studied, alone and bewildered, a stranger in a strange land. But Ponter is also befriended — by a doctor and a physicist who share his questing intelligence, and especially by Canadian geneticist Mary Vaughan, a woman with whom he develops a special rapport. Ponter’s partner, Adikor Huld, finds himself with a messy lab, a missing body, suspicious people all around and an explosive murder trial. How do he possibly prove his innocence when he has no idea what actually took place to Ponter? “A rapidly plotted, anthropologically saturated speculative novel…[with] Sawyer-signature wide appeal.” –THE WORLD & Mail
