About this audiobook
More than half a millennium in the future, in the shadow of the looming Cydonian Pyramid, a pampered girl named Lah Lia has been raised for one purpose: to be sacrificed through one of the mysterious diskos that hover over the pyramid's top. But just as she is about to be killed, a strange boy appears from the diskos, providing a cover of chaos that allows her to escape and launching her on a time-spinning journey in which her fate is irreversibly linked to his.
The second audiobook in the Klaatu Diskos trilogy, The Cydonian Pyramid continues the story of the enigmatic girl who changed Tucker Feye's life, returning listeners to the terrifying, thrilling, and elusive worlds found in the diskos.

Reviews for The Cydonian Pyramid
14 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This second volume in the Klaatu Diskos trilogy alternates between Tucker Feye’s and Lah Lia’s perspectives of the same time period as The Obsidian Blade. It opens with Tucker Feye time traveling through the diskos and landing near a US submarine in the Arctic Circle in 1959 at the height of the Cold War. He tries to explain to the ship’s doctor how he got there but has a lot of difficulty with that because the doctor thinks he is a Soviet Spy. Lah Lia escapes the fate of the Pure Girls in Romelas of dying by sacrifice as per the Lah Sept religion when Tucker and his uncle fall through a disko onto the altar. Most of the book follows Lahlia’s travels through the diskos and time, past and future including when she first met Tucker in the first volume. Hautman blends politics, religion, the promise or curse of technology, quantum kabbalistc science, abuse and many more issues in this fascinating yet confusing mélange of a book. The character development is strong but only the most patient fans will stick with this series. It is necessary to read the first volume and preferably close to the reading of the second.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This volume fills us in on Lia's backstory and gives Tucker a chance to put his adventures-to-date into perspective. There is danger, and fight training, and more adventure, and a really healthy dose of skepticism.
