About this listen
Critic Reviews
"If you wish to understand the roots of modern science fiction, you have to read the Lensman saga." (Allen Steele)
"A finalist for a special Hugo Award for All-Time Best Series, 'Lensman' is considered by many sf heads to be the greatest of the space operas and clearly a source for such successors as Star Trek and Star Wars." ( Library Journal)

Picks up a little
Originally published as a serial the story has been added to when published in book form. I'm not sure that the first half of the novel is necessary but at least we are warned of this in a preamble. After the sixth hour a bit more of a plot starts to develop, but I'm still not sure if I would rate this novel as highly as master works like Asimov's Foundation series. Maybe I'll change my mind after another book or two but the first doesn't suck you in.
The flat text is delivered with a flat narration, which certainly doesn't add anything. Not the worst narrator I've heard, but nowhere near the best.

I totally went deep in listening to this series.
Having never the time to read these books when I was younger it was a total pleasure to be able to listen to the series , in order, with the next available just as I was left on the next cliff hanger. Having since completed this and many other sci-fi series I still recall the story of the Lensmen as the most enjoyable .. Unless your a talking beercan !
