I enjoyed this book when I first read it many years ago. I do not know haw many times I have read it. Like most excellent books, it is remembered too well to be a new story. This audiobook is done very well and the reader’s presentation matched the quality of the book.

Thanks for the feedback, Nathan! I didn't really set out to have a "clinical" tone. I think I was mostly just a little intimidated by the amount of medical terminology in the story. That, and I was trying to keep it closer to a "reading" instead of a "performance" since ...

Well, one can't have too many Nathans, I suppose! Glad you enjoyed it, Nathan the other...! :) For you and any others who enjoyed Star Surgeon, keep your eye out for John W. Campbell's "The Black Star Passes" which should go live here on Podiobooks quite shortly. Cheers!

Thanks for the kind words, Peter. As far as doing more is concerned, I'm actually working on another one right now. Search right here on Podiobooks for my reading of Black Star Passes by John W. Campbell. Hope you enjoy that one as well. Cheers!

Really a gem. If you finish the book, and hear Scott's motivations, you'll see he perfectly met them. The story is a wonderful mid-1950 style, and Scott's narration is spot-on. A real don't miss effort!
