Why This Must Be Read: Written with Random's usual sharp edge and innate understanding of the charaters, Barren gives us post-Absolute Power Daniel, faced with the struggle to define integrity. Which ethical choice is the right one: to hide or destroy a record of technological data with the potential to be deadly, or to disseminate knowledge, no matter the risk?
Daniel's POV is rich with his grounding in archeology and linguistics, and the bleak backdrop of loss and desolation is stark against the powerful, almost wordless communication between Jack and Daniel. And while Daniel may not wholly accept it, it's Jack - and the team at his back - that will always make the difference.
