About this listen

The Stars That Beckon is an action-packed, hard science fiction space adventure about mankind’s attempted colonisation of another planet. Written with intelligence, humour, a dash of romance and a twist of time travel thrown in for good measure, it is a completely engaging and compelling read. From the early scenes on Earth to the unfolding drama and tension of a desperate interstellar journey, the story moves at a cracking pace. It is an un-put-downable rollercoaster that draws you in and won’t let you go until the final thrilling chapter! But be warned: there are plenty of twists and turns awaiting you!

If you enjoyed the movies "The Martian", "Ad Astra", "Passengers", "Supernova" or "Interstellar" you will love this book! Similarly, if you enjoyed the books "Children of Time", "Winter World", "The Enceladus Mission" or any of the classic space exploration stories by sci fi masters such as Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, & Arthur C Clarke, then this is the book for you!

In the normal course of events, Zac Perryman was destined to live an unremarkable life and die without leaving more than the faintest ripple in the ocean of humanity’s existence. But the normal course of events was about to be rudely interrupted. As he slept past his alarm on a warm February morning, events were conspiring to derail his ordinary life and sweep him up into a tsunami of cosmic proportions. Zac becomes part of ragged band of desperate survivors who flee from a dying Earth in search of a new home. Leaving behind a planet that has been decimated by global catastrophe, they set course for a distant star system on board mankind’s only surviving starship. But the universe plays a cruel joke on them. Awakening from cryogenic stasis, they discover that they have not only travelled through space, but through time as well. Now facing even deadlier threats from a strange world, their battle for survival is only just beginning. An exciting, intelligent, fast-paced adventure that spans the galaxy.

One reviewer wrote: “Incredibly well written, intelligent science fiction, by a writer who really knows how to tell a story. The most gripping story I have read in years!”
