![]() ![]() I have listened to this fascinating book twice now.and it is so filled with thoughtful insights and exciting plotlines I may listen to it annually! David Brin has grown hugely as an author and storyteller. What an amazing prescient and exquisite story! Clearly he has a good inner line on projecting what could go on in the near future, check him out of you're looking for a good read. The cost of connecting to the world wide web dropping to less then the cost of gas and food? Soon. Earthquakes next to the coast taking out nuclear power plant? Check. In some of the sub-plot lines, he talks about the leaders with Swiss bank accounts? Check A world linked by computers and camera's recording everything done by the people? Check. I'm just got done re-reading David Brin's "Earth" written in 1989 after a 15 year break to see how well it holds (the Audible version with a nice short story at the end that takes place in the same universe). What other book might you compare Earth to and why?Īccelerando by Charles Stross, it's a strong view of a possible future. ![]() The narration was great the characters came alive. What made the experience of listening to Earth the most enjoyable? ![]()
