Acerca de esta escucha

Late in the 21st century, Earth receives what looks like an urgent plea for help from planet Proxima Centauri b in the closest star system to the Sun.

Astrophysicists suspect a massive solar flare is about to destroy this heretofore-unknown civilization. Earth's space programs are unequipped to help, but an unscrupulous Russian billionaire launches a secret and highly-specialized spaceship to Proxima b, over four light-years away.

The unusual crew faces a Herculean task - should they survive the journey. No one knows what to expect from this alien planet.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A nice pairing

I enjoyed this book and the narrator was, as always, amazing. I love his voice and find it to be very soothing. The story that the author has written is quite fabulous, I listened in one day, had to keep going. Where there is only one person, yet to be joined by Adam & Eve to grow as they get to their mission is very well written.the, action and science is believable. I’m hoping that the 2nd book is just as exciting, I want more alien interaction, friendly or not so friendly.
I highly recommend this for the story and narration. I do believe I have not heard or read anything by this author before, looking forward to the next book!

very interesting

I really like the world building in the end. the early chapters are very lonely but needed for setting the scene.

Good Story… Unfortunate Cliffhanger Ending

Liked the story premise and performance just fine. Novel concepts for otherwise impossible human travel to another star. Not that there is anything wrong with having multiple books in a series but one must ease the reader/listener into the transition more smoothly than this title does and certainly not make it look like the break was done solely to get you to paying for the next installment but having that next installment ready to go offering a preview teaser at the end. Had this title left the reader with a more satisfying ending with a epilogue summarizing generally how the protagonists moved on from nearly loosing their guiding AI and at least exploring the discovery at the end some with lots of questions for the next book, maybe the ending would not have seemed so calculated. You have to leave the listener with the option to feel the ending was satisfying enough NOT to consume another credit or buy another book. If the story and writing is good enough then moving the audience to the next book does not require marketing gimmicks. The author chooses to just end the story hanging having overcome a serious threat and the implication that the threat may (and probably will) return in the next book(s). Not sure I feel like rewarding that behavior by using a credit to listen to the rest of the story. BTW, i’ve noticed a TREND when it comes to book series on Audible… let the subscribers stream the first book in the series ONLY and use credits for the rest. See how that works?

Wonderfully fascinating trip ....

from the perspective of the AI. An intriguingly mysterious story. All told in a most soothing of voices. A great tale without the depravity & gross perverseness of typical modern stories. This proves entertainment can be had without being dragged through the gutter of human decline.

It was okay

The book was only 8 hours long. Same for the second one. Could have easily combined the two into one book. Not worth another credit to find out.

Interesting story but one book is enough!

Especially towards the end.= with all the twist and turns. Perhaps if they had just allowed the prologue to the next book to play, I may have been interested in listening to the subsequent books, but listening to the next story bored me. On book is sufficient.

Good Hard SF Make Room for AI

Good start to a promising series. Plus included free with the plus subscription. The premise is original and The log entry style fits the story well.

Not much of a story

The concept of a space ship being launched from Earth ,at 60% the speed of light, that is the size of a pencil and containing an AI and nano manufacturing facility is fascinating. The ship is literally built molecule by molecule on the journey and arrives full size at the next star with cloned human beings. Once this early part of the journey is complete, the rest of the story is a slow uninteresting exploration of the new planet by the only two passengers delivered by the ship. While there are many mysteries to solve about the missing original inhabitants of the planet, the story reads more like a science book of cataloging and planning, with very little interpersonal interactions of any interest. There's a lot that could have been interjected into this story that would have made it fascinating, but is sorely missing.

Uh...

Great beginning and narrative and slowly petered out into boring nothingness. Idiotic AI story so common these days. I'm not a fan of AI stories. They're just an excuse for authors to not develop real characters. No credible sci fi here. Stopped short of finishing book near the end.

Great! I could not put it down.

Real science fiction. Although it streches science, it was believable. I looked the story and the characters.
