Unabridged Audiobook
This book is a very enjoyable sci-fi. The entwined story lines were well written. I have read other books written by Andre Norton. She has never disappointed. The narrator’s delivery was excellent.
good listen and interesting to hear
Conclusion- a let down. Lots of build up into noting,
Amazing is a word that does not do justice to this very talented author. With every story she wrote, you are taken to the ends of the universe. Mrs Norton is a story teller that is incredible, as she takes you to the highest levels of wonder. I found it hard to stop listening even when I was hungry or tired. The narrator, brought the story alive with his wonderful voice.
As always Norton writes a great book. And the narration was spot on.
I liked it. The possible evolvement of telepathy in the human race is exciting especially if we could tune into the thoughts of animals.
This Author is always entertaining, very predictable but still very entertaining.
Great book, loved the story line. Whoever listen to it must remember when it was writen, don't judge by what we know now and consider "normal".
That was a masterful journey, far past experience. This book ought to be required reading. Andre Norton has constructed a wholly believable world, and populated it with fascinating characters. In telling this story, Mark F. Smith does not disappoint. The sound quality is superb, the reading given with emotion and delicate clarity. I was enthralled, and so thoroughly impressed, that my only disappointment was that it had to end. Now, I will search for a sequel. If one exists, I can only hope it is narrated by Smith.
The story was just ok. A little hard to follow.
Enjoyed the book
This book seemed like a mediocre attempt. The author has many great books out, this seemed liked it was phoned in.
Happy to have found this author and story, I think from the golden age of sci-fi. Held my attention and had me invested in the characters, and it was free on audiobooks.
This is classic sci-fi by the prolific “Grande Dame of Science Fiction and Fantasy” and was published in 1957. It’s a good story well narrated. It was interesting that what should have been good, that all prejudice had been banned on Earth, was nearly fatal for the spacemen. When the pilot expresses his doubts about the aliens’ motives he is reprimanded for being prejudiced because the aliens are different and the captain places non-prejudice over common sense.
I enjoyed this one. The end for me came surprisingly quick. Though it was good.
