Histoire
The starship Earthling, filled with thousands of hibernating colonists en route to a new world at Tau Ceti, is stranded beyond the solar system when the ship's three organic mental cores - disembodied human brains that control the vessel's functions - go insane. The emergency skeleton crew sees only one chance for survival: build an artificial consciousness in the Earthling's primary computer that can guide them to their destination - and hope it doesn't destroy the human race.

Histoire
One moment a man sits on a suburban hill, gazing curiously at the stars. The next, he is whirling through the firmament, and perhaps the most remarkable of all science fiction journeys has begun. Even Stapledon's other great work, 'Last and First Men' pales in ambition next to 'Star Maker' which presents nothing less than an entire imagined history of life in the universe, encompassing billions of years.

Iconic main character and world
- Écrit par Emmett le 2021-10-31
Auteur(s): Alfred Bester
Description
Best-selling science fiction superstars Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle combine their talents with those of Steven Barnes in an extraordinary adventure of humankind’s first outpost in the farthest reaches of space.
Light years from Earth, colonists land on a planet they name Avalon. It seems like a paradise—until native creatures savagely attack. It will take every bit of intelligence, courage, and military-style discipline to survive.

Great story
Fantastic story although the writing of the female character's hasn't aged well. Several of the main female characters spend large amounts of time discussing how they "need" a man to survive. Children require a father to be raised correctly, etc.

One of the finest sci-fi novels ever written
This book has it all. Smart, complicated, conflicted characters that you can identify with. An exotic, alien environment. Creatures that are scary and fearsome and nigh unstoppable. Good solid hard sci-fi with a plot twist that amps up the danger a thousand-fold. If I were trapped on a desert island with five books, this would be one of them. I could read / listen to it again and again. Where is the movie? #Audible1

Author jumps perspectives
Creatures are interesting. Worst part is how the author jumps from macro to micro perspectives in the story line. Very poorly done. All the characters feel like caricatures with stupid catch phrases. The unnecessary obsession with cheezy "romantic" dialog while there is so much detailing of the world that could be fleshed out is annoying.

Misogynistic
Sucks that there’s such overt misogyny from authors because the story telling is quite good. The book would probably be popular amongst incels.
