À propos de cet audio

 Set in 2082, Peter Watts' Blindsight is fast-moving, hard SF that pulls readers into a futuristic world where a mind-bending alien encounter is about to unfold.

After the Firefall, all eyes are locked heavenward as a team of specialists aboard the self-piloted spaceship Theseus hurtles outbound to intercept an unknown intelligence.

Great performance by the narrator. However the story is a mess. I had no idea what is going on most of the time.

Story is too confusing

The story caught me a few times and made every word worth listening to!

a must read for anyone who enjoys sci-fi, horror

It is an interesting sci fi story smothered by technobabble and purple prose. The author really wants you to know he’s the smartest guy in the room.

tough one to review. while some of the concepts and ideas presented in this book are rather brilliant and will stick with me, it is told through the lens of a riddle being read through smoke. it almost lost me right off the get go because of the lack of cohesion in the story. after I realized that the story is delivered in bits and pieces throughout the book with little pattern of delivery then I could appreciate it more. definitely a ton of big concepts and philosophy on reality, fate, existence, etc to make your brain work hard. felt like if I stopped paying attention for even a sentence I would miss something incredibly important to the plot which made for a very concentrated listen. I think this is one that would need multiple reads to really pay off, though I don't think I have the stamina for a second attempt. still, the situation and characters were interesting and not often you find a scenario combining vampires, cyborgs, ai, personality disorders, etc into one plot line. I also found the narration a bit mopey, as if the whole book was being read by Eeyore from winni the pooh. everything sounded depressed and very ho-hum which worked at times but not for the whole book. if your looking for a thinking person's Sci fi, this might be for you.

uniquely creative & presented for better or worse

Fantastic Hard Sci-Fi

Really interesting and Sci-fi to the point of being nearly* not relatable; which only the finest of sci-fi does.
As a lowly pleb, there was a lot of verbiage that needed looking up, but even the most overtly complex bits were digestible when taken in with the context.
Overall the story had a the feel of 90’s grunge that made you want to take a hard step back from the everyday and consider your place in universe, while cleaning grand-pappy’s ol’ double barrel.

You might have to listen to it twice

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. A lot of the visuals were hard to follow and fast moving but still enjoyed it.

Gonna miss that vampire.

Hard to follow the details but very interesting ideas
