About this listen

Visionary space industrialist Dan Randolph is dead, but his protege, pilot Pancho Barnes, now sits on the board of his conglomerate. She has her work cut out for her, for Randolph's rival, Martin Humphries, still wants to control Astro and still wants to drive independent asteroid miners like Lars Fuchs out of business. Humphries wants revenge against Pancho, and, most of all, he wants his old flame, Amanda, who has become Lars Fuchs's wife. Before it ends, many will die, and many will achieve more than they ever dreamed was possible.It rocks! Don't miss any of the action in Ben Bova's Asteroid Wars series, including the first book, The Precipice, the third, The Silent War, and the fourth, The Aftermath.©2002 Ben Bova (P)2002, 2005 Audio Renaissance, a division of Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC Adventure Science Fiction Space Opera Fiction Space

Critic Reviews

"Bova in top form." (Kirkus Reviews)
"Compelling." (Booklist)
"Hard-charging....Ambitiously juggling elements of space opera, western, and Sophoclean drama, Bova keeps the pages turning." (Publishers Weekly)
