![]() Like most listeners, I really like most books narrated by John Lee and his performance in this one is good. ![]() I will make a comment about the narration just because I was a little peeved. ![]() And, if you haven't read the series yet, you shouldn't start with this book. I am not going to really review the book because if you have read the series, you are getting the book no matter what anyway. This is the first of a new trilogy in Revelation Space so it isn't too surprising that it is a little slower than some Reynolds books - it is setting up the action that will surely come in the next two books. Although there are other books within the Revelation Space series, those 5 are the ones that really provide the setup for Inhibitor Phase. In spite of the order Audible has them listed, start with Chasm City, and then Revelation Space, Redemption Ark, Absolution Gap, and Galactic North. And, if you haven't read the others, you should because they are wonderful. So, if you haven't read any of the Revelation Space books DO NOT START HERE. You will miss much of the subtext and much of the fun of this book comes from finding the answers to loose threads from previous books. Although this book is written so that it can be read as a stand alone, I strongly recommend against it. ![]()
