More like a discussion on astrophysics with the author

Which is literally is! Have heard a lot better ones from Neil Degrasse Tyson. This one seems like an abridged discussion of his favourite topics. Sentences and explanation have been literally borrowed from his other books. Even though you are blown over at first, by what he says; repetition of same concepts and language, irrespective of how impressive they are, becomes bit monotonous. Otherwise, give it a go if you have nothing better to hear, it’s too short anyway.
