in Latin, so I think the audio books pronunciation is correct.

The english H sound (as in Horace?) I don't think it existed in Latin, 
I know it doesn't exist in french (the H does, not the sound), and 
neither in Spanish (the H sound is more like a J), and neither in 
Italian. I think it's just an english sound.

but maybe the name implies that hour has come for the key puzzle piece 
to fall into place?

I've been looking all over the place for its possible meanings, and 
still I haven't figure it out
