The story starts with a comet that touches the Earth in its flight and collects a few small chunks of it. Some forty people of various nations and ages are condemned to a two-year-long journey on the comet. They form a mini-society and cope with the hostile environment of the comet (mostly the cold). The size of the 'comet' is about 2300 kilometers in diameter - far larger than any comet or asteroid that actually exists. (Summary by Wikipedia)
Customer Reviews
good reading
There are multiple readers. They do a good job.
Good effort. Needs work.
The narrator here is obviously very young, so I am loathe to judge his effort too harshly. Reading aloud is no easy task, and anyone who attempts it deserves some respect. That said, I can't really recommend this audio book. The narrator mispronounces so many words that I found it impossible to pay attention to the reading. I finally had to stop listening. As with any endeavor, a second set of eyes and ears would help here.
