Resumen del Editor
Their vastnesses concealed since an era predating the earliest mammals, two titanic chasms are uncovered beneath the canopy of modern Siberia.
Lining the granite walls of the first, high above an orderly reservoir of fossilized eggs, an inscription spanning 85 miles describes the genome of a proto-mammalian species eradicated during the Permian Extinction. In the next, researchers discover etchings of the constellations as they would have appeared across the eons; a global timeline of 10 billion years remembered and foretold by a primordial intelligence beyond our own.
Armed with a genetic recipe, compelled to act by the harrowing implications of a pattern detected in the timeline, an international effort begins to return that species from extinction before mankind encounters its own.
The human race has only just learned to pluck at the strings of life on Earth. Will the curtains rise on a siren's song?
Where will they fall?

Historia
At his death in 1988, Robert A. Heinlein left a legacy that almost single-handedly defined modern science fiction. But one of Heinlein's masterpieces was never finished. In 1955, he began work on Variable Star, a powerful and passionate tale of two young lovers driven apart by pride, power, and the vastness of interstellar time and space. Now, the Heinlein estate has authorized award-winning author Spider Robinson to expand his outline into a full-length novel. And the result is vintage Heinlein.

At the turn of the 22nd century, scientists make a breakthrough in human spaceflight. Through a revolutionary method known as somaforming, astronauts can survive in hostile environments off Earth using synthetic biological supplementations. With the fragility of the body no longer a limiting factor, human beings are at last able to journey to neighboring exoplanets long known to harbor life. A team of these explorers, Ariadne O’Neill and her three crewmates, are hard at work in a planetary system 15 light-years from Sol, on a mission to ecologically survey four habitable worlds.

Gripping. This book grabs your attention right from the start!
This is the second book from this author i have read and can truly say I am an instant lifelong fan and can’t wait for more. The story initially leaves your jaw on the floor and then keeps you guessing as the mystery unfolds. Fans of fantasy, sci-fi and plausible fiction will be equally thrilled with the fast paced entertaining storyline! More please!

Interesting, but short.
An interesting concept with many possibilities that feels short and lacks closure. If there is a sequal, it should have been included in this book.

Great Premise, Lots of Science with the Fiction
I enjoyed this book, has a few twists and the science part can get a bit long-winded, but was a lot of fun to work through.
Performance was outstanding, Nick Cracknell made each character and voice very distinct.
Definitely recommend this to fans of works like 'The Martian', 'The Core' and 'Deep Impact'.

An interesting thought experiment
In Permian, we are brought through a story which spans a number of different scientific concepts as it explores a fascinating genetics and evolutionary thought experiment. I really appreciated the unique style of humor that the author has, and felt the characters were well-complemented by it.
I think this narrator was a suitable choice overall for the storyline and concept, however I found myself disappointed in the caliber of some of the accents, particularly for those of Asian descent. That said, I would still choose to listen to other books performed by this narrator that highlight his skillset more.
All in all this was an interesting and enjoyable read—it’s perfect for when you want something heavy but don’t want to invest the time (and brainpower) needed for a longer book.

Excellent Writer and Narrator!
Having read a sincere amount of off-the-beaten trail sci-fi I can say that this book touches on many of the fantastic elements that sci-fi brings to mind and heart for me. Maintaining its originality it contains subtle notes of Ted Chiang's "Story of Your Life", and that is an absolute compliment. If you've seen the movie "Arrival", you know what I am talking about. If you're fortunate enough to appreciate the sci-fi genre and have a day of transit, it is short, well written, and filled with wonder. 10/10
P.S I'm starting "At the Pace of Man" next, totally impressed.

Very Odd but Enjoyable!
The book has a Jurassic Park vibe to it, however I had to take one star away because I got lost between almost every "installment". I honestly hope that there will be a second book based on the offspring of Ma'am.
The narrator was fantastic and possibly one of my new favorite narrators. Very easy to listen to.

Interesting premise but....
.... it was a labor to finish . You could tell the author was trying to channel the hard sci-fi styling of Larry Niven but it came across like a technical manual for the most part. There wasn't enough development in the alienness of the creature's intelligence, some of its biology was a bit too "out there" and matched poorly with the hard science layered into the story. The characters and many of the analogies the author used felt very forced. I didn't hate the story it was the unpolished parts that really dragged it down to being a chore to complete.
