About this listen
The long-awaited new novel by the award-winning, best-selling author of Startide Rising and The Uplift War- an epic novel set 50 years from tomorrow, a carefully-reasoned, scientifically faithful tale of the fate of our world.
©1990 David Brin (P)2012 Audible, Inc.Critic Reviews
"One hell of a novel.... has what sci-fi readers want these days; intelligence, action, and an epic scale" ( Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine)
"The prime attraction of Earth is the author's unfailing resourcefulness in extrapolating a post-greenhouse-effect future that is plausible, dismaying, and amazing in equal parts…. Brin's prose ranges from regular to high octant…. His characters have vivid intellectual lives." ( Entertainment Weekly)
"Brin has conceived his story on a supremely ambitious scale, and executed it with all the skills at this command." ( Chicago Sun-Times)
Perhaps they'll read the next New York Italian novel with a Mexican accent? Close enough right?
I won't be listening to these narrators again. One day I might find Earth narrated with some tiny fraction of effort that would have helped this version.
I hope David Brin has no idea...
Book is amazing. Voice acting is terrible
