About this listen

James White captures all the breathtaking excitement of the perils and rewards of the future's medical frontiers in this gripping book.

Sector General: a massive deep-space hospital station on the Galactic Rim, where human and alien medicine meet. It's 384 levels and thousands of staff members are supposedly able to meet the needs of any conceivable alien patient–though that capacity is always being strained as more (and stranger) alien races turn up to join the galactic community. Sentient viruses, interspecies romances, undreamed-of institutional catering problems–it all lands on Sector General’s doorstep.

This book is amazing! Author's ability to invent new, exciting alien forms is unsurpassed. The whole hospital setting and investigations is incredibly engaging. I like the reader too, but have to listen on .90 speed, sometimes he goes a bit fast for my liking. overall, excellent and very recommended read!

The best space exploration fiction by far!
