About this listen

 Late in the 26th century, the human race has advanced enough to accidentally trigger the Inhibitors---alien-killing machines designed to detect intelligent life and destroy it. The only hope for humanity lies in the recovery of a secret cache of doomsday weapons---and a renegade named Clavain who is determined to find them. But other factions want the weapons for their own purposes---and the weapons themselves have another agenda altogether.©2008 Alastair Reynolds (P)2009 Tantor Alternate History Fiction First Contact Hard Science Fiction Science Fiction Space Opera Space Transportation

What the critics say

"Reynolds confirms his place among the leaders of the hard-science space-opera renaissance." ( Publishers Weekly Starred Review)
"The best of the new breed of space opera. Wild action on a grand scale spans well-imagined and developed worlds." ( The Denver Post)

Awesome Sequel to Revelation Space

I was a little put off that Audible made it seem like Chasm City was a sequel, but THIS is the real sequel to Revelation Space. I enjoyed it throughout.

Neat story, poor performance

I love Alistair Reynolds, and this series. however, this book feels like a support story, meant to close some story lines from previous books and lay the groundwork for the next books. still, I gave this book 4/5, because it's still a good book, and interesting lore if you're a fan of this writer or this universe.
I've never been a fan of John Lee's performances, but this performance was the flattest so far. I almost returned the book in the first chapter due to falling asleep multiple times.

Pas captivant

Même après 5 chapitres , je n'ai jamais réussi à entrer dans cet univers... Pas pour moi... J'ai arrêté là.
