Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Double Star is a fast-paced, engaging listen that had me hooked from the start. Pinchot's narration is pitch-perfect, his ability to differentiate characters is commendable. The story moves at a brisk pace, never lingering too long on details, which might be a turn-off for those who prefer more world-building. However, Heinlein's sharp dialogue and thought-provoking ideas more than make up for it. The only critique I have is the ending feels a tad rushed, but it's a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent audiobook.
