The entire six hours I listened to could have been condensed into less than half an hour. The world is ending and there isn't an ounce of drama. The moon exploding is covered in the first 5 minutes and then it goes into "bad Michael Crichton" mode where every minor character gets an uninteresting biography and every piece of science gets explained in excruciating detail. Hard science is fine, but it needs to be interesting and you shouldn't stop the story every other page to explain how morse code works in space or the best way to wipe your ass in space.
Part of the problem is that I have a hard time listening to full length audiobooks. They nearly always seem to drag.
