À propos de cet audio
When prospector Bob Broadhead went out to Gateway on the Heechee spacecraft, he decided he would know which was the right mission to make him his fortune. Three missions later, now famous and permanently rich, Robinette Broadhead has to face what happened to him and what he is...in a journey into himself as perilous and even more horrifying than the nightmare trip through the interstellar void that he drove himself to take!
BONUS AUDIO: In an exclusive introduction, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Robert J. Sawyer explains why Gateway is one of science fiction's all-time greatest novels.

Histoire4 out of 5 stars 100
Welcome to Ringworld, an intermediate step between Dyson Spheres and planets. The gravitational force created by a rotation on its axis of 770 miles per second means no need for a roof. Walls 1,000 miles high at each rim will let in the sun and prevent much air from escaping. Larry Niven's novel, Ringworld, is the winner of the 1970 Hugo Award for Best Novel, the 1970 Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the 1972 Ditmars, an Australian award for Best International Science Fiction.

The gigantic comet had slammed into Earth, forging earthquakes a thousand times too powerful to measure on the Richter scale, tidal waves thousands of feet high. Cities were turned into oceans; oceans turned into steam. It was the beginning of a new Ice Age and the end of civilization. But for the terrified men and women chance had saved, it was also the dawn of a new struggle for survival--a struggle more dangerous and challenging than any they had ever known....

Tom Dreyfus is a Prefect, a law enforcement officer with the Panoply. His beat is the multifaceted utopian society of the Glitter Band, that vast swirl of space habitats orbiting the planet Yellowstone, the teeming hub of a human interstellar empire spanning many worlds. His current case: investigating a murderous attack against one of the habitats that left 900 people dead, a crime that appalls even a hardened cop like Dreyfus.

A Fire Upon the Deep is the big, breakout book that fulfills the promise of Vinge's career to date: a gripping tale of galactic war told on a cosmic scale. Thousands of years hence, many races inhabit a universe where a mind's potential is determined by its location in space, from superintelligent entities in the Transcend, to the limited minds of the Unthinking Depths, where only simple creatures and technology can function.

Blundering Humans in Space
The misogynistic tendencies of the protagonist often got in my way of liking the characters. But if you enjoy stories where the emotions of the old-school characters are paramount to the story, you may enjoy this classic very much.

A great human tale with a dash of 1970s misogyny
it was just a couple lines but the way that the author dismissed a scene of violent abuse of a woman by man was a bit troubling

Unique exploration of technology and human impact
This is a slow burn, which I think is great. It's a 3 dimensional Sci-Fi that explores the psyche of the main character and doesn't exclusive rely on the technology for the story. Sometimes I wondered why certain topics were being discussed but after some reflection afterwards I began to appreciate why they were included. The author explored the human implications of this random and dangerous technology in a new direction and I appreciate the book for that. #Audible1

It's Great
It's a great science-fiction story and the scenes between Robby and Sigfrid were the highlight as the story progresses through therapy sessions trying to unlock repressed memories. Pohl's depiction of human exploration by alien hardware is both exciting and nerve-racking, as the unknown presents a common outcome of death and destruction. I happened to have the book as well, which had extra material that expanded the setting and history of Gateway, I wish it would have been included too. The novel however just seemed to end, but I assume it picks up in the sequel. Oliver Wyman was a great narrator and brought the characters to life with a performance that presented their complicated and conflicted past . Great overall and a must listen to for any science-fiction fan.
