À propos de cet audio

Six-time Hugo Award-winner Ben Bova chronicles the saga of humankind's expansion beyond the solar system.

In Ben Bova's previous novel, New Earth, Jordan Kell led the first human mission beyond the solar system, where they discovered the ruins of an ancient alien civilization. But one alien AI survived, and it revealed to Jordan Kell that an explosion in the black hole at the heart of the Milky Way galaxy has created a wave of deadly radiation, expanding out from the core toward Earth. Unless the human race acts to save itself, all life on Earth will be wiped out.

When Kell and his team return to Earth many years after their departure, they find that their world has changed almost beyond recognition. Not only has a second wave of greenhouse flooding caused sea levels to rise, but society has been changed by the consequences of the climate shift. Few people want to face Jordan Kell's news. He must convince Earth's new rulers that the human race is in danger of extinction unless it acts to forestall the death wave coming from the galaxy's heart.

Less action more strategic thrill ride. I like it when there’s drama without too many twists and turns.

Fun ride

The story was first published in 2015, but the technology several centuries on doesn't surpass the tech of 2015.

Bova doesn't improve with age

like all sci-fi of this era it has some serious trouble writing female characters as anything other than simpering idiots. other than that, the story and concepts are solid.

good but dated

the story, in the long run, will b great. I've personally never been a fan of the politics, but it seemed almost necessary in this one. I look forward tothe rest of the series

After reading Farside and New Earth, the story continues back at home planet.
After discoveries in two previous books, the story slows down a bit. Still, I wasn't disappointed, as it prepares for the next round of space exploration..

Not disappointed

A "sacred aliens" novel in the style of 70s. Not what Bova does well.

Lacks the gritty realism of his better works

I think I have two audio books I couldn't finish, this makes it the third. No characters has any depth, most are profoundly repulsive witouth feeling like a purposeful antagonist.

The same concept or idea is repeated 3 times in almost each conversation in

The narrator is clear, that is the best I can stay of this performance. I didn't feel any emotion or sens of being there or even told a story, just read a story.

Disappointing.

Terrible characters, bland delivery.
