Description

Gateway opened on all the wealth of the Universe...and on reaches of unimaginable horror.

When prospector Bob Broadhead went out to Gateway on the Heechee spacecraft, he decided he would know which was the right mission to make him his fortune. Three missions later, now famous and permanently rich, Robinette Broadhead has to face what happened to him and what he is...in a journey into himself as perilous and even more horrifying than the nightmare trip through the interstellar void that he drove himself to take!

BONUS AUDIO: In an exclusive introduction, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Robert J. Sawyer explains why Gateway is one of science fiction's all-time greatest novels.

A great human tale with a dash of 1970s misogyny

it was just a couple lines but the way that the author dismissed a scene of violent abuse of a woman by man was a bit troubling

Unique exploration of technology and human impact

This is a slow burn, which I think is great. It's a 3 dimensional Sci-Fi that explores the psyche of the main character and doesn't exclusive rely on the technology for the story. Sometimes I wondered why certain topics were being discussed but after some reflection afterwards I began to appreciate why they were included. The author explored the human implications of this random and dangerous technology in a new direction and I appreciate the book for that. #Audible1

It's Great

It's a great science-fiction story and the scenes between Robby and Sigfrid were the highlight as the story progresses through therapy sessions trying to unlock repressed memories. Pohl's depiction of human exploration by alien hardware is both exciting and nerve-racking, as the unknown presents a common outcome of death and destruction. I happened to have the book as well, which had extra material that expanded the setting and history of Gateway, I wish it would have been included too. The novel however just seemed to end, but I assume it picks up in the sequel. Oliver Wyman was a great narrator and brought the characters to life with a performance that presented their complicated and conflicted past . Great overall and a must listen to for any science-fiction fan.

Blundering Humans in Space

The misogynistic tendencies of the protagonist often got in my way of liking the characters. But if you enjoy stories where the emotions of the old-school characters are paramount to the story, you may enjoy this classic very much.
