Über diesen Titel

Dennis E. Taylor, author of the best-selling Bobiverse trilogy, explores a whole different, darker world in this sci-fi stand-alone. Determined to give his wife and children a better life back home, Ivan Pritchard ventures to the edge of known space to join the crew of the Mad Astra as an asteroid miner. He's prepared for hard work and loneliness—but not the unthinkable. After coming into contact with a mysterious alien substance, Pritchard finds an unwelcome entity sharing his mind, and a disturbing physical transformation taking place. With his very humanity at stake, Pritchard must save mankind from a full-scale interstellar war.

Brought to life by prolific, award-winning narrator Ray Porter, The Singularity Trap is a thrilling adventure rife with drama and action on a truly cosmic scale.

Kritikerstimmen

“Dennis Taylor serves up a top-notch outer-space adventure…. Ray Porter’s narration is simply brilliant…. In addition to suspense, action, futuristic detail, and moments of comedy, the book brings a light, investigative touch to the question of what exactly human identity is.” (The Washington Post)

Another great story from Dennis E. Taylor. Only wish that guy could write as fast as I can read ;) Seriously good scifi and a very believable vision of the future. Can't wait for the next one.

Just like in the Bobbiverse Books D.E. Taylor takes our present ecological and political global situation and projects where humanity might be in a few hundred years. Then he layers in a possible alien contact scenario.
I particularly enjoy that Taylor does not use a ton of exposition that would break the flow of the story.
Reading the book, you maybe don’t feel as much empathy with the main character, than with the people surrounding him.
I enjoyed the developing relationship between Ivan and the computer, but that may just be the biologist in me.
I also really enjoy Ray Porters performance.

Another unconventional idea that Dennis E. Taylor explores to its full extent. The story is brilliantly executed both in terms of suspension, the eventual reprise and, last but not least, Ray Porter's congenial performance. It's a keeper! Note that "The similarity trap" is a stand-alone SF novel, albeit Audible appears to indicate otherwise.

Outstanding

schöne aber nicht sehr spannende Geschichte. hat mich gut unterhalten aber wird nicht unbedingt eine Empfehlung für Freunde. Die "We are Bob" Trilogie von Taylor fand ich großartig!
