Nine hundred thousand years ago, something annihilated the Amarantin civilization just as it was on the verge of discovering space flight. Now one scientist, Dan Sylveste, will stop at nothing to solve the Amarantin riddle before ancient history repeats itself.

With no other resources at his disposal, Sylveste forges a dangerous alliance with the cyborg crew of the starship Nostalgia for Infinity. But as he closes in on the secret, a killer closes in on him because the Amarantin were destroyed for a reason. And if that reason is uncovered, the universe - and reality itself - could be irrevocably altered.

Revelation space is one of many books I've read in dead tree format, and have revisited in audiobook form. Usually it's a very rewarding experience, and I loved this book when I read it so had high hopes for the more immersive medium of audio.

However this is the second Alastair Reynolds book I've listened to, and I just can't face any more of them as John Lee's narration ruins them. His pacing... is... terrible.

That's only the second time in years of audible membership a narrator has spoiled the experience, but a bitterly disappointing one as I was looking forwards to making my way through Reynold's back catalogue.

Good book, terrible reader

I don’t understand how John Lee has narrated so many books, clearly a lot of people like him. I find his two tone delivery extremely irritating it’s like he emphasises the first syllable, the next is minor and then back up to emphasise the next. It’s like listening to a nee naw siren trying to read to you. I just find it irritating and it’s meant that I cannot listen to the story which is a real shame as he has narrated some of my favourite books.

I couldn’t get past the narrator

Where to start?
This is a book of some complexity and enormous scale. It ranges from the sub-atomic to unbelievably large rents in space-time. From petty human conflicts to the fate of humanity. It's a BIG book, in all senses of the word. Humans have spread out into space using huge sub-light starships called lighthuggers. No hyperspace here. Time is not circumvented, in fact, it is material to the sequence of events. The main characters are well fleshed-out and believable. The "scenery" of the tale is for the most part well-described too.
The tale twists and turns and delights, but sometimes almost gets lost in the minutiae of the descriptions. This is my basic reason for not giving it five stars. I love intricate tales as well as more basic science fiction fare, but sometimes you can be a little too verbose. This is a personal opinion and others would be right to disagree with my thoughts on the matter.
Suffice to say, that I have already bought two other books from this author, set in the same universe, and will be starting one of them as soon as I finish this review.

Final thoughts on the matter?
A good solid read. You will not be disappointed.
Buy it!

An interesting insight into a possible future

Very nice book, well performed, but it simply didn't catch my interest, except for the history of the Amaranthians.
