About this audiobook
A new star has appeared in the night sky. And it’s getting closer.
From the legendary father of science fiction, H.G. Wells, comes a chillingly prophetic tale of cosmic indifference and planetary survival. When a rogue celestial body enters the solar system, humanity watches in fascination as it collides with Neptune. But fascination quickly turns to absolute terror when the laws of gravity take hold, pulling the blazing star directly into Earth’s orbital path.
As the nights grow brighter and the globe grows dangerously warmer, humanity faces an apocalyptic countdown. Masterfully tense and hauntingly atmospheric, The Star is a powerful exploration of mankind's insignificance in a vast, uncaring universe. Will humanity survive the flyby, or will the Earth be wiped clean?
Listen to this timeless masterpiece of sci-fi dread today.
