A Novel

“A totally new and original work that stretches his talents to their fullest...welcome back, champ!” (The Detroit News)

In the 23rd century, pioneers have escaped the crowded earth for life in self-sustaining orbital colonies. One of the colonies, Rotor, has broken away from the solar system to create its own renegade utopia around an unknown red star two light-years from Earth: a star named Nemesis.

Now a 15-year-old Rotorian girl has learned of the dire threat that nemesis poses to Earth’s people - but she is prevented from warning them. Soon, she will realize that Nemesis endangers Rotor as well. And so it will be up to her alone to save both Earth and Rotor as - drawn inexorably by Nemesis, the death star - they hurtle toward certain disaster.

a neat story. lil cringe

cool story. the authors obsession with analyzing the sex apeal of every female charecter they introduce even if their 12 is a bit off putting but i still listened to the end

hidden treasure

get one more hidden treasure from the master a science fiction. the concept portrayed in the book is not one visited a lot by other authors and was refreshing.

red curry

excellent book good to the very end can't wait to read the next one now

Good stuff

I had no problem finishing this book. The twists were reasonable and rewarding. Some characters were more fleshed out than others, but I feel that's somewhat common in Asimov - every character doesn't have to have depth.

Scott brick is one of my favorite narrators, he doesn't try to do strange voices and I appreciate that.

Genius!!!!

On of the best science fiction novels of all time in my opinion. The way Asimov introduces the blend of Science and science fiction is just brilliant with a captivating plot that keeps you engaged the whole time. I can’t appraise the narrator enough. Scott’s narration brings text to life with no gimmicks or stupid accents.

Wrong voice

I like Scott Brick as a narrator, but not for this story. Scott's voice was heavy handed. At least, there should have been a higher voice part for the female dialog.

When you wish apond a star?

Good story, easy to listen to and Asimov wrote another great book! If only other SciFi writers could wright books that requires us to pay attention to stories with bigger vertices beyond armies of mass destruction. That gets old fast!

Good Solid Asimov

This is an engaging story and well narrated. I have only one criticism. Some of the story was predictable. The end was a bit of a twist, but not much. I feel like this wonderful author was finally running out of steam. But it is good, classic science fiction and better than most others you'll ever read.

Asimov is still relevant and compelling

Asimov writes pure science fiction as usual he takes what knowledge he had of science over 60 years ago extrapolates where it could take us then blends it with a compelling story of romance and gives us a beautiful timeless riveting novel.

always love Asimov.

always a good story wrapped around cool physics ideas. I like his writing style too. not too verbose, always just enough exposition to allow you to see it in your mind.
