内容概要

　　When Errol's long-dead father calls him in the middle of the
night, Errol learns about "the Wave," a billion-year-old organism
slowly creeping to Earth's surface and reanimating corpses into
healthy vibrant replicas of their former selves with virtually
intact memories. The more Errol learns, the more he comes to
respect and identify with the living organism and seeks to protect
it from the deadly machinations of the military. As the tale
unravels through Errol's eyes, Tim Cain provides a steady and
smooth tone for the narrative passages that corresponds well to
Errol's speaking parts. Cain's use of emphasis for particular words
and sentences jump out so that even the most inattentive listener
picks up the important pieces. The soft and gentle style spoken by
Errol's father, GT, generally corresponds to the nature of his
character. GT's tone might also ignite the image of a hippie, which
makes sense given the peace and love that his species promote.
Cain's other vocal characterizations maintain a decent semblance to
the people described within the text. His distinct, deep voice
delivers emotion and intensity throughout the story, making it easy
for any listener to enjoy.
