Destination: Void

The Pandora Sequence

De: Frank Herbert

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The starship Earthling, filled with thousands of hibernating colonists en route to a new world at Tau Ceti, is stranded beyond the solar system when the ship's three organic mental cores—disembodied human brains that control the vessel's functions—go insane. The emergency skeleton crew sees only one chance for survival: build an artificial consciousness in the Earthling's primary computer that can guide them to their destination—and hope it doesn't destroy the human race.

Don't miss Frank Herbert's classic novel that begins the epic Pandora Sequence.

dated but engaging hard sci fi

thought provoking and profound concepts. spaceship/computer jargon that doesn't age well. still glad I read it.

Not Herbert's best work

The story required continuous suspension of disbelief. Very little of the story was credible. Many times I was tempted to stop, but I went on. Having finished it, I can say I wouldn't have missed anything by stopping.

Awesome

Great book. I would recommend this to anyone who is a true sci-fi fan.

OK for a listen

This Herbert ovel is a bit too chock full of scientific theories and psycho babble to be solidly entertaining, but it's ok for a listen. Just don't expect too much.

one of my favorite books ever

A fantastic book that does not oversimplify complicated Concepts. a wonderful preview to the following books in the series.
