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.

Critic reviews

“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)

Without a doubt the best science fiction book I have ever read, and I have read a lot over the last 40 years. The plot is outstandingly brilliant and you are fully transported into the story line from page 1. The narration is so good it is beyond belief. This narrator is absolutely outstanding each character’s voice unique. I am in awe. I chose this book because of its high ratings. I now completely understand and concur with those ratings. I think I am going to have to listen to it again! And I am also going to look up every other book this narrator may have performed.

Simply Outstanding

This book was a real page turner for me. If topics and ideas of man's evolution beyond himself are of interest then this story delivers a necessity that would drive us beyond our crude wet wear.

Nothing particularly ground breaking with with the scientific ideology, the story is believable and delivers danger. The narration is pretty good. The attitude of the main character seems to wander a little and is sometimes a little oddly cocky. I'll listen to more from this author.

Nice in to Transhumanism

Brilliant!! Lots of interesting concepts which are highly relevant to roday's world. Great storyline which is really brought to life by excellent narration. Been awhile since I reviewed a book... but had to for this one... you have to get it! Fantastic listen... think there'll be a lot more 5 starr rathings!

A good story that had me involved to the end. The sound was very good with realistic effects for radio, intercom, phone and computer.

Good story with a great use of sound.
