The Jesus Incident

The Pandora Sequence, Book 1

De: Frank Herbert, Bill Ransom

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The last survivors of humanity have just been deposited on Pandora, a horrific, poisonous planet rife with deadly nerve-runners, hooded dashers, airborne jellyfish, and intelligent kelp. The determined colonists attempt to establish a bridgehead on the deadly, inhospitable planet, but more trouble arises. Their sentient ship - backed up by an impressive array of armaments - has decided it is God and is insisting the colonists find appropriate ways to worship it.

In an attempt to help the people pass its test, Ship awakens chaplain-psychiatrist Raja Flattery from hibernation. Either the humans pass the test - or the human race could be destroyed.

Cerebral journey on a hostile world

Colonists on Pandora face a planet designed to kill them. The enigmatic Ship watches from above, and has thawed out a hibernating chaplain-psychiatrist to complete the players in a power struggle of politics, religion, and biology - if they survive the hostile environment, they must still learn to WorShip or be destroyed. Recommended for fans of Dune and Herbert’s other work. While a sequel to “Destination: Void”, you can start here. Excellent performance by Scott Brick.

Poetic Masterpiece

Outside of the plot, the overall sensation strung together by the struggle of infinite lives makes this one slap harder than most. Tougher material with snapshots of madness and sober proclamations, this one is for the ages.

There’s so much to say on this book, the complexity of the characters the ship cloning religion too much to go on

I enjoyed reading this book. It’s actually the second time that I’ve read it the first time I read it I was in junior high 
And it was just as good then, as it was now 

a true masterpiece

an amazing story I read many years ago and just reread. I think I enjoyed it more this time.
