About this listen

Third Planet by Murray Leinster is a classic mid-20th-century science fiction novel that blends space exploration with a chilling warning about humanity’s future. Written during the height of Cold War tensions, the story follows the crew of the survey ship Lotus as they investigate a once-living planet reduced to lifeless ruin by nuclear devastation. What they uncover is more than an alien mystery—it is a mirror reflecting Earth’s own perilous path.

Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic science fiction with philosophical depth, planetary exploration, and socially conscious storytelling, this novel remains as relevant today as when it was first published.
