About this listen

Multiple Nebula and Hugo Award-winner Greg Bear returns to the Earth of his acclaimed novel Eon a world devastated by nuclear war. The crew of the asteroid-starship Thistledown has thwarted an attack by the Jarts by severing their link to the Way, an endless corridor that spans universes. The asteroid settled into orbit around Earth and the tunnel snaked away, forming a contained universe of its own. Forty years later, on Gaia, Rhita Vaskayza recklessly pursues her legacy, seeking an Earth once again threatened by forces from within and without. For physicist Konrad Korzenowski, murdered for creating The Way, and resurrected, is compelled by a faction determined to see it opened once more. And humankind will discover just how entirely they have underestimated their ancient adversaries.

Patience it’s worth it

It took me a while to get into this but it’s worth going right to the end. I felt sad for a lot of the characters. I just love Ben Bova and his sprawling alternate takes on things.

very enjoyable

Great story, good to hear the range of voices. Makes me want to go back to listen to Eon (which I read) to see if they match.

Brilliant

I really enjoyed this book. It had a fascinating story line that is original, thought provoking and not just the usual science fiction.
