“Well written, well read and altogether a very very good podiobook. It combines science facts, theory and a little writers licence to enthrall the listener and make them question the universe around them.”

“An excellent listen, found myself telling myself 'just one more chapter'. Loved the science info dumps, makes me want to learn more about black holes and space ( trying not to spoil the content). All in all an amazing book. Listen and enjoy.”

“This book is somewhat unique in the sci-fi genre in that the "sci" part is realistic and believable. Overall though the story is just so-so. It's not bad, but nothing that will keep you up all night either. The ending was predictable, but still turned out good. The reader has a very droning,...”Read full review »

“Bill's book and voice are great to listen to. I discovered this podcast when searching for a free science fiction podcast for a car trip. This is now part of my collection.
My only issue is that the music at the start and finish of each podcast is louder than Bill's spoken voice.”

“This book is boring through and through, Bills voice will make you fall asleep and the story is uninteresting. I dont think I could grasp what was going on in the story at any one time.
The only thing this audiobook is good for is to help you fall asleep at night.
Trust me none of the other...”Read full review »

“Bill delivers one of the most well written sci fi podcasts I've ever listened to. There is so much accurate science behind the story that you can really believe some of the more far fetched ideas. Bill has a great way of developing the characters so you can really identify with all of them. Well...”Read full review »

“I love the science: the story about the Texan is exciting. The other two threads are a bit boring and I have to admit I stopped listening at chapter 15 -- fully intending to finish it later. The narrator (and writer) is a bit monotone and it's hard to follow at times. It's good enough that...”Read full review »

“I have read some of the other reviews and can understand some of their points. However, I still have to rate this as one of my favorite sci-fi books ever. It is so hard to develop an exciting plot from real historical events and hardcore astrophysics.....but Bill DeSmedt does it. Considering...”Read full review »

“I am a scifi / fantasy freak since childhood. I love this book so far and I've only heard 3 episodes. His writing style feels polished and his descriptive style is wonderful.

We are presented with a host of compelling characters with intriguing back-stories and...”Read full review »

“I am 8 chapters into the book so far and I have to say it has been exciting. If I did it again, I'd skip the prologue because I don't like to know where the author is going, I like to be surprised, but the prologue gives away the entire direction of the book (the write-up probably does too, I...”Read full review »

“This is an excellent espionage thriller cleverly disguised as Sci-Fi. It is a realistic view of the ongoing cold war that captures the imagination and keeps the reader hook to the end. Also, his Russian accent is a spot on match. It's a wonder that it doesn't have more readers.”Read full review »

“Ever have that college art history proff that just drones on and on? That's how this is. Seemed like it would be a cool story, but this was classic monotone, "Ben Stein a la Ferris Bueller's Day Off" style of reading.”

“Any fan of heart-pounding action, cutting-edge science and a well-crafted story should not miss Singularity! The prolouge is a little dry, but give it a chance, once it picks up steam, it never stops.
Without a doubt, one of the best sci-fi books I've ever listened to.”

“Singularity to this date has been a excellent story and well produced podcast. The voices he uses are quite good, and I am enjoying the plot. Plus there is a quantum mechanical fireside chat and who doesn't love those. Its well worth the subscription. I'm hooked.”
