À propos de cet audio

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.

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.

Great story

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

One of the finest sci-fi novels ever written

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.

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

Misogynistic
