WAITING FOR EDEN

In a voice laden with a searching, understated intensity, MacLeod Andrews narrates this powerful account of three young souls broken by a war that forever splits them apart. Eden Malcolm has returned to the U.S. from Iraq so severely wounded he's unable to move or communicate. His wife visits every day, still wondering why he insisted on a second deployment, especially when he knew she was pregnant. And his best friend and fellow Marine tells the story from the grave. This audiobook, part romance, part ghost story, is a serious examination of the emotional toll of modern warfare. Andrews's careful pacing and natural delivery find meaning and wisdom in every well-structured, poetic sentence. B.P.
