This was full cast audio. I 💘 that. I probably read this as a kid but I didn't really remember it. This was written in the 1940s so well before actual space travel. I definitely recommend this and anything else by the author. 🚀🌠 👽

Time for the Stars | Robert A. Heinlein

I've read this before in dead tree, but went with audio this time. Narrator was good, but not really exciting.

In Heinlein fashion, the underlying physics makes a lot of sense, but this isn't a story about physics; it is about the people. And you really start caring for the people. Especially when tragedy strikes.

The ending comes off as Deus ex machina- something to quickly wrap up the plot in a nice, neat package. Feels chopped off.
