A Vision of Fire

De: Gillian Anderson, Jeff Rovin

Narrado por: Gillian Anderson

The first novel from iconic X-Files star Gillian Anderson and New York Times best-selling author Jeff Rovin: a science fiction thriller of epic proportions.

Renowned child psychologist Caitlin O'Hara is a single mom trying to juggle her job, her son, and a lackluster dating life. Her world is suddenly upturned when Maanik, the daughter of India's ambassador to the United Nations, starts speaking in tongues and having violent visions. Caitlin is sure that her fits have something to do with the recent assassination attempt on her father - a shooting that has escalated nuclear tensions between India and Pakistan to dangerous levels - but when teenagers around the world start having similar outbursts, Caitlin begins to think that there’s a more sinister force at work.

In Haiti, a student claws at her throat, drowning on dry land. In Iran, a boy suddenly and inexplicably sets himself on fire. Animals, too, are acting irrationally, from rats in New York City to birds in South America to ordinary house pets. With Asia on the cusp of nuclear war, Caitlin must race across the globe to uncover the mystical links among these seemingly unrelated incidents in order to save her patient - and perhaps the world.

Wonderful story!

This is an enthralling book that sucks you in and won't let go. I would highly recommend it.

Great!!

Gillian is an AMAZING audio performer!! The book itself is fantastic aside from a couple somewhat lame terms. Awesome altogether though!

fun read

interesting story. great female characters. Gillian's voice is smart, sexy, believable and feels like home all at once. was great to have her narrating in the background of my day to day for awhile.

If you expected something a bit X-Files-y ....

If you could sum up A Vision of Fire in three words, what would they be?

If you expected something a bit X-Files-y from Ms. Anderson, you will not be disappointed, though it falls more into Sci-Fi / WooWoo....story a bit confusing to follow, but overall enjoyable. Ms. Anderson's narration was top notch, as it should be.

Entertaining!

Enjoyed the story, characters, and Gillian Anderson reading the book. Look forward for the next installment!

Great Story!

Very entertaining and captivating! Can’t wait to start the next book! If you like mysteries, sci-fi and Gillian Anderson you’ll love this book!

Pleasant surprise.

This was a pleasant surprise.
Great story, excellent narration and like able characters. I’m glad this is a series.
Well worth the time.
Jillian Anderson is a very talented writer. She is also a great narrator.

WOW...just wow!

This book totally exceeded my expectations! I couldn't sleep...I had to know WTH was going on! About to start book 2!

Great and unusual adventure

Performance is Jillian Andersen. What else can I say. Great voice and character creations.

Novel has some amazing ideas and new chilling horror elements.

I devoured this book in a one setting. Could not stop listening

My only critique. Lots of big jumps in beliefs and I am left wondering how our main character connects the dots in the ways she does.

Perhaps we will get there in book two and three.

Gripping!

I will admit that I bought this book because I'm a huge fan of gillian anderson. But from the first chapter you're hooked. It's epic and yet relatable and I loved many of the characters. Plus I was super impressed by Gillian's accents. Definitely worth a listen!
