À propos de cet audio
The Mote In God's Eye is their acknowledged masterpiece, an epic novel of mankind's first encounter with alien life that transcends the genre. No lesser an authority than Robert A. Heinlein called it "possibly the finest science fiction novel I have ever read".

They won't settle for mere victory. They want to exterminate us. Every last one of us. A surprise attack has sent the Star Alliance fleeing for its life. A remnant of a remnant, their meager fleet—all that remains alive—flees to what seems like a safe harbor: a forgotten backwater planet called Earth. Join ace fighter pilot Chase as he teams up with the modern-day militaries of Earth and fights the last battle for the universe.

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.

In 2204, humanity is expanding into the wider galaxy in leaps and bounds. Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation - including starships - virtually obsolete. Every place on Earth, every distant planet humankind has settled, is now a step away from any other. And all seems wonderful - until a crashed alien spaceship of unknown origin is found on a newly located world 89 light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. To assess the potential of the threat a high-powered team is dispatched to investigate. But one of them may not be all they seem....

A bit of a page-turner...
This is pretty great traditional sci fi. It deals with classic themes, such as scarcity vs abundance, factional conflict, overpopulation, and post apocalyptic resurgence. You can't go wrong there. Even better with creepy asymmetrical aliens.
The technology predictions make it age very well. Niven and Pournelle were educated and erudite enough to be solid futurists. Niven was (is) a visionary. Pournelle was a notable polymath.
The Mote in God's Eye has an engaging storyline that compels the 'just one more page' effect.
No complaints about the narration.

Let down by prose and explaining
Maybe your not like me and would really enjoy all of the physics that gets dropped here but I felt it really let down the prose and lead to real dry patches throughout the book. It was interesting but it wasn't gripping and I found myself just trying to get it over with. Additionally this book was written in 1997 and it feels like it.

Must read classic
A book written in 1974 couldn’t have ages better. Pocket touch screen computers and radio Bluetooth are incredible predictions that make it seem it was written in the 21st century!

Classic science fiction story.
This is a classic science fiction story. A few minor details will seem a bit dated but that is only to be expected and they do not get in the way of the narrative.
The narrator has a strong male voice which was quite good for the main character. The narrator wasn’t bad with female characters and his Russian accent was pretty good for one prominent character.
However, several prominent characters had Scottish accents and the narrator’s Scottish accent was terrible. Not even close. This really got in the way of me enjoying the story. The story clearly calls for these characters to have a Scottish accent so they needed a narrator who could do these accents properly.

It okay…
I would’ve liked a be a bit more suspense, feels like a satire at times. Maybe the audiobook doesn’t do the book justice, I found it boring most of the time.
