À propos de cet audio

"Narrator Jennifer Hale's outstanding performance brings this story of alien invasion to life.... Hale's range of differentiation is masterly as she animates all the quirky characters Kira meets. From the rough, snarky slang of ex-military woman to the half-mad musings of a human 'ship mind,' every unique voice enhances the listening experience." (AudioFile magazine, Earphones Award winner)

This program includes an afterword read by Christopher Paolini, as well as a bonus conversation between Christopher Paolini and Jennifer Hale.

To Sleep in a Sea of Stars is a brand new epic novel from New York Times best-selling author Christopher Paolini.

This program is read by Jennifer Hale, a Canadian American actress and singer who has appeared in hundreds of cartoon episodes and taken on roles in well over 185 video games, winning multiple awards. Her varied roles include Commander Shepard in Mass Effect, Rosalind Lutece in BioShock Infinite, Cinderella in both games and animation, Kronika in MK11, Naomi Hunter in the Metal Gear series, several roles in The Powerpuff Girls, Justice League, Avengers Assemble, the Emmy Award-winning Lost in Oz, Jean Grey/Phoenix in both games and animated series, and dozens more. This is her first audiobook.

Kira Navárez dreamed of life on new worlds.

Now she's awakened a nightmare.

During a routine survey mission on an uncolonized planet, Kira finds an alien relic. At first she's delighted, but elation turns to terror when the ancient dust around her begins to move.

As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation. First contact isn't at all what she imagined, and events push her to the very limits of what it means to be human.

While Kira faces her own horrors, Earth and its colonies stand upon the brink of annihilation. Now, Kira might be humanity's greatest and final hope....

I absolutely loved the main protagonist. Within a very short time I felt I knew her, I understood how she perceived the univers and how she was affected by what was happening to her. I could feel and understand her fear, confusion, curiosity and happiness. In this story, the author has created a truly compelling, multi-faceted, and well rounded character. The supporting characters are similarly constructed. Even though they are mostly sci-fi stock (the space marine, the roughing, rouge smuggler, etc) they are still complex and distinct. They do a fine job moving the story along.

If your looking for the “sci” part of sci-fi, you will not be disappointed. Though the technology and theory behind it are not centre-stage, they are extensively developed (there is an appendix that dives deeper into it) and most definitely add to the story.

However.
At more than thirty hours, this book was longer than it had to be. One of the author’s Eragon books was of similar length but it was required to tell the story, nothing there was padding the runtime, so to speak. This book however, felt stretched out. The episodic adventures started to feel repetitive and I think a few crises could have been left out and not only would the story not suffer, but it would feel far more fluid. I think that twenty-five hours could have told the story better.

Notwithstanding this, I very much enjoyed this book and am looking forward to seeing what Christopher Paolini comes up with next.
