I’m posting 11 books by Sawyer, that I’ve not seen on the site as of yet. All but 2 of these are not read by professionals, but are by volunteers that read them for “Library for the Blind”.

That being said, I’ve heard WORSE (i.e. Librivox).

Most of the 11 have been released by Audible, unfortunately I haven’t found any of those versions, if anyone can post Audible editions that would be MUCH APPRECIATED. Until then, these will have to do.

Dr. Sarah Halifax decoded the first-ever radio transmission received from aliens. Thirty-eight years later, a second message is received and Sarah, now eighty-seven, may hold the key to deciphering this one, too if she lives long enough.

A wealthy industrialist offers to pay for Sarah to have a rollback, a hugely expensive experimental rejuvenation procedure. She accepts on condition that Don, her husband of sixty years, gets a rollback, too. The process works for Don, making him physically twenty-five again.

Butt in a tragic twist, the rollback fails for Sarah, leaving her in her eighties as the second message arrives. While Don tries to deal with his new found youth and the suddenly vast age gap between him and his wife, Sarah struggles to do again what she’d done once before: figure out what a signal from the stars contains.
Exploring morals and ethics on both human and cosmic scales, Rollback is the big new SF novel by Hugo and Nebula Award-winner Robert J. Sawyer.
