Recommended book

Very well written! Strong charactures! Thought provoking concepts of science fiction. I recommend this book.

Great and relevant story

This is a great story with a lot of important messages.
The key message being the importance of science and the support of curiosity and the seeking of knowledge over ignorance and the acceptance of unsubstantiated rationalization.
The narration was great.

Fine Original Story

Always great to spend $$ on a book that DOESN'T follow the same old story schemes. very good !!

A Great Read

Excellent writer with a unique story!
Not hard core but a fantastic journey seriously reflecting on humanity.
Thank you Mr Cawdron!

Great Listen, but kind of slow to get started.

This was slow to develop the story, but once it did, it was worth the wait. It is a slightly hard scifi, but scifi isn't the point of the story. The last chapter knocked it out of the park. It did leave me wondering about what the convergence thing was all about. This will make you think.
