Audiofile magazine’s February/March 2008 issue has designated an “earphones award” for an audiobook reviewed by SFFaudio’s own cool guy Scott Danielson.
Scott wrote, among other things, of Variable Star (by Robert A. Heinlein and Spider Robinson)…
“The novel is full of philosophical insight, exploding things, and space travel.”
Cool!
