Mars

De: Ben Bova

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

This grand epic adventure from six-time Hugo Award - winning author Ben Bova tells the irresistible story of man's first mission to that great unconquered frontier, Mars. Technically plausible and compellingly human, Bova's story explores the political, scientific, and social repercussions of our greatest quest yet: the search for evidence of life beyond Earth's boundaries.

Half-Navajo geologist Jamie Waterman has been selected for the ground team of the first manned expedition to our mysterious neighbor planet. Joining an international team of astronauts and scientists, he endures the rigors of training, the dangers of traveling an incredible distance in space, the challenges of an alien landscape, and the personal and political conflicts that arise when the team must face the most shocking discovery of all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A bulging, impressive, all-you-ever-wanted-to-know, you-are-there Martian odyssey." ( Kirkus Reviews)

Best Mars book ever

I first listened to this audiobook way back when it was a book-on-tape, borrowed from the library many years ago. It was a favorite when I spent hours in the car travelling Texas in sales. The characters are so down to earth and the scenarios so believable that you could imagine yourself working alongside them, feeling the intensity of scientists desperate to make the most of the limited time and resources of a first Mars mission. #NearFuture #SuperbNarration #LetsGetToMars #Tagsgiving #Sweepstakes

Excellent story, beautifully told

It’s rare that a story like this brings me to tears, but at times this one did. It plucks at the heart strings and makes one yearn to explore the future.

Great Narrator,very good book.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Nice listening,worth every cent.

Would you be willing to try another book from Ben Bova? Why or why not?

of course i'll do,but i'll put some books in between.

What does Stefan Rudnicki bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Stefan it's very very good,nothing to add.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

If steven spielberg or sodenbergh will do it,yes.

Any additional comments?

If you're looking for explosions and aliens or sci-fi high tech stuff coming to you every moment...let it go.
