About this listen

An epic collection of science fiction tales around space exploration and cosmic horror by the #1 bestselling author of A Game of Thrones – with the titular story, Nightflyers, coming to Netflix in 2018.

On a voyage toward the boundaries of the known universe, nine misfit academics seek out first contact with a shadowy alien race.

But another enigma is the Nightflyer itself, a cybernetic wonder with an elusive captain no one has ever seen in the flesh.

Soon, however, the crew discovers that their greatest mystery – and most dangerous threat – is an unexpected force aboard the ship wielding a thirst for blood and terror…

Also included are five additional classic George R.R. Martin tales of science fiction that explore the breadth of technology and the dark corners of the human mind.

Critic Reviews

‘I always expect the best from George R. R. Martin, and he always delivers’
Robert Jordan

‘Of those who work in the grand epic-fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best. In fact . . . this is as good a time as any to proclaim him the American Tolkien’
Time

‘Long live George Martin….A literary dervish, enthralled by complicated characters and vivid language, and bursting with the wild vision of the very best tale tellers’
The New York Times

‘George R.R. Martin is one of our very best writers, and this is one of his very best books’
Raymond E. Feist

Praise for A Song of Ice and Fire:

'In the grand epic fantasy tradition, Martin is by far the best … tense, surging, insomnia-inflicting'

We have here the same clarity of actions and vision as what the late GoT characters had. Brilliant visionary style.

Not Song of Ice and Fire in space!

Listening to it made me feel like George R.R. Martin ate the person who actually wrote Game of thrones and claimed himself as writer. J.K . Lol
Was expecting something as grand as GOT but nah. Nightflyers is bit boring for my taste..

Meh

I’m sorry to say but NightFlyers and other stories was dull and Mike Grady,s gravely voice was monotone and wearisome.

Disappointing
