I stumbled across an article of many authors who had passed due to covid, and instantly noticed Ben Bova. As a teenager, I devoured books. They were little glimpses of wonderful or terrible things that the future will hold. Ben Bova was a favourite, and in the mid 90’s I had a fair collection of his works. I remembered the “Exiles” trilogy being especially interesting, as it spanned a story of three distinct parts over many centuries. Unfortunately, revisiting these 25-30 years later has shown me how dated the views of the characters in the books have become and they are painful to read/listen to now. The core story is still interesting but sadly, I no longer consider it something I would recommend.

Hasn’t aged well unfortunately

3rd and final book in series, not suitable as a standalone read, yet doesn't flow smoothly from previous book. Characters got to know in previous books had no place in this one which was an added disappointment. Only reason I continued and finished listening to this was as always the narrator performance engaging and easy to listen to.

Disappointing 3rd book of series

Having listened to many of Ben Bova's writing's my only complaint is with myself for not discovering this brilliant author a long time ago.
I must also thank Stefan Rudnicki for his excellent narration.

Well I downloaded this just to see what it would be like I wasn’t expecting too much but the story was actually pretty original it was a bit daft in parts but it wasn’t anything unbelievable I really enjoyed it

Wasn’t expecting much but was good

This is very much SF from the late sixties/early seventies but the story is quite good. I was dubious apart the start of the third book but it eventually made sense. Enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

Just about worth it
