Search for the Star Stones

De: Andre Norton

Narrado por: Charles Constant

Murdoc Jern's father, an interstellar gem trader, was murdered by outlaw competitors and left behind an odd ring, large enough to fit over the finger of a space suit. With his companion Eet, a strange feline mutant with phenomenal mental powers, he soon discovered that the stone in the ring was actually a Zero Stone - an alien device left behind by an ancient vanished race - and it was the key to powers beyond human imagination.

Murdoc and Eet had to solve the secret of the Zero Stone, and very quickly, because very greedy and dangerous people wanted that ring - and wouldn't hesitate at a second murder to obtain it.

The wonderful story.

The narration was also great. The world building was absolutely first class. I love all of Norton's work.

Both Star Stone books

Great to have an audio version of a pair of books that lived as a kid. They held up well. Left wanting more, or maybe just trained in todays world of book series- these two a linked and sequels in her Forerunner universe.

Great sci fi story

In my opinion one of the best Andre Nortons book - I liked is as a child and I like it as an adult. Story has a nice, relatively fast pace, it is easy to listen.

Fun story from the early years of sci-fi

I enjoyed this book, but I don’t understand why the author never wrote a sequel. Would like to have found out what happened to the main characters in the future. This really feels like books one and two of a trilogy where the third book never got written.

Not the Authors best

I didn't like the voice he used for the cat thing. it was grating and hard to understand. as was the old man, about half the time. other than that I liked it. it was interesting.
