À propos de cet audio

 The Hugo Award-winning author of numerous best-sellers, Charles Stross crafts tales that push the limits of the genre.

In Saturn's Children, Freya is an obsolete android concubine in a society where humans haven't existed for hundreds of years. A rigid caste system keeps the Aristos, a vindictive group of humanoids, well in control of the lower, slave-chipped classes. So when Freya offends one particularly nasty Aristo, she's forced to take a dangerous courier job off-planet.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Stross takes a plot device common to mystery novels and turns it into one of the most stylishly imaginative robot tales ever penned." ( Booklist)
"Good fun... Heinlein himself would've liked this." ( San Diego Union-Tribune)

I really liked it overall. Not as overtly erotic as I expected, only some pervy fun bits and some sci fi body oddity, but the odd sex scene is glossed over, or not explicitly detailed. I think the choice of narrator lends some brevity to the themes of freedom vs people's "nature", and their ties to eachother. The occasional touch on serious matters of slavery and abuse can occasionally be a little awkward, but I'm glad the author wasn't going to skirt around it. The world building's pretty imaginative. I'd recommend it for an entertaining sci fi romp.

Fun sci fi

Great story

There was so many twists and turns I had to wind back and replay some sections several times to sort out the action. I think saying the characters were complex is an understatement. Great thriller and great SyFi!

I feel like I just got off a rollercoaster.
