Publisher's Summary

Goodreads Choice Award for Best Science Fiction Novel.

To Sleep in a Sea of Stars is a masterful epic science-fiction novel from the New York Times and Sunday Times best-selling author of the Inheritance Cycle, Christopher Paolini.

Kira Navárez dreamed of life on new worlds. Now she's awakened a nightmare.

During a routine survey mission on an uncolonized planet, Kira finds an alien relic. At first she’s delighted, but elation turns to terror when the ancient dust around her begins to move. As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation. First contact isn’t at all what she imagined, and events push her to the very limits of what it means to be human. While Kira faces her own horrors, Earth and its colonies stand upon the brink of annihilation. Now, Kira might be humanity’s greatest and final hope....

Transported to stars...

Readers/Listeners shuttled out of the earth.
A gripping, complex, fast pacing tale of Paolini's style.
Narration of Jennifer Hale was marvelous, gives additional feel to the story.

Good plot, very lengthy though

The plot is good, if only it were a bit more succinct and not stretch on in many parts of the story making it such a lengthy book.

Its like a teenage book

Its like a series where you can almost predict what will happen a few chapters down the line. i didn't like this book. It was a typical teenage female protagonist with a lot of control over feelings and events and convincing people to listen to her. Not believable.
The narrator is good . waste of time and resources though.

Flat story. Narration is mediocre.
