Diamond Dogs, Turquoise Days

Revelation Space, Book 6

De: Alastair Reynolds

Narrado por: John Lee

Diamond Dogs

The planet Golgotha - supposedly lifeless - resides in a remote star system, far from those inhabited by human colonists. It is home to an enigmatic machinelike structure called the Blood Spire, which has already brutally and systematically claimed the lives of one starship crew that attempted to uncover its secrets. But nothing will deter Richard Swift from exploring this object of alien origin.

Turquoise Days

In the seas of Turquoise live the Pattern Jugglers, the amorphous, aquatic organisms capable of preserving the memories of any human swimmer who joins their collective consciousness. Naqi Okpik devoted her life to studying these creatures - and paid a high price for swimming among them. Now she may be the only hope for the survival of the species - and of every person living on Turquoise.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[R]eaders familiar with Reynolds will find intriguing sidebars." ( Kirkus)

Loved This

I'm a big Reynolds fan...and John Lee's narration is amazing. I could listen to him narrate a phone book. The stories here are exceptionally entertaining, especially for fans of hard sci fi.

pretty good

Alistair Reynolds always tells a good story, and this is no exception, but it did seem a bit disjointed.

Diamond Dogs is 10/10

DD might be one of the best short scifi stories ever written. The other one is ok

Great short stories

I love it when an author creates short stories in the universe that we love to live in, but don’t concern any main story characters. These two stories are very fun to listen to.

Interesting characters and worlds

Excellent performance. Unique and soothing voice. Immersive world building. The novella format crystallizes the challenges that the characters face. Their responses to these challenges demonstrate their character.
