About this listen

The last survivors of humanity have just been deposited on Pandora, a horrific, poisonous planet rife with deadly nerve-runners, hooded dashers, airborne jellyfish, and intelligent kelp. The determined colonists attempt to establish a bridgehead on the deadly, inhospitable planet, but more trouble arises. Their sentient ship - backed up by an impressive array of armaments - has decided it is God and is insisting the colonists find appropriate ways to worship it.

In an attempt to help the people pass its test, Ship awakens chaplain-psychiatrist Raja Flattery from hibernation. Either the humans pass the test - or the human race could be destroyed.

Excellent story and good narration.

I read the book for the first time when I was 12 years old. I wasn't a particularly sophisticated 12 year old, but I understood the broad strokes. Or at least I thought I did.

I must have read it 7 or 8 times since that first attempt with the understanding that came with age and experience adding to the story. Now that I'm multiples in age of that 12 year old boy, I still enjoy this story emensly.

I'm sure I'll listen to or read it again in the next couple of years just to see if I can gather anything I missed the previous times.
