What made the experience of listening to Contact the most enjoyable?
It was a good "easy listening" experience - not too slow paced, and not too fast eitherWho was your favorite character and why?
Elly - Her determination and resolve are what make her a unique and powerful character.What about Jodie Foster’s performance did you like?
She is an excellent reader with a clear voice - and since she played Elly in the movie was able to pull from that performance to make the reading even more authentic.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I would have liked to listen to it in one sitting, but it turned out being 3 sittings for me - but if I have time another day I will try and listen to it again in one go.Simply Awesome

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes I would, this science-fiction novel truly shows the depth of creativity Sagan has combined with his passion for astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology. Top it off with an outstanding reading from Jodie Foster and this is hands down one of the best audio books around.Brilliant, creative science-fiction novel

Contact is wonderful

It is a bit different from the movie, more character insight, the only complaint I have is that it is too short - I wish it was not an abridged version.
Wonderful!!

Well thought out, scientifically accurate, captivatingWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Contact?
When they see the decahedron gates in all sizes, when Ellie learns that the tunnels were created by an unknown ancient intelligence, and most of all, when she learns that humans are worthy of a place in this universe.What about Jodie Foster’s performance did you like?
The accents!Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
