Audio: The reader does a wonderful job reading through the book without being distracting or hard to understand. Excellent audio work.

Book: Lewis again spins a fascinating tale that continues his foray into science fiction. His philosophical and theological bents are fully on display here with some of his ideas pushing beyond the bounds of what would typically be considered “normal” Christian understandings of (possible) alien life and he even plays with the idea of other parts of creation (other planets here) being untouched by the fall.

His plot is always gripping and interesting but there are a few points at which he lets his philosophical side get a bit carried away. Overall, I’d highly recommend this book (and the series).
