About this listen

Step into a whimsical world where philosophy meets imagination in The Greats Abridged: A Voyage to the Moon—a 17th-century satirical masterpiece by Cyrano de Bergerac. Narrated with charm and clarity by Richard Stibbard, this early science fiction tale follows the bold and eccentric Cyrano as he devises bizarre methods to travel to the Moon. Once there, he discovers a strange lunar civilization and engages in witty philosophical debates that challenge earthly norms.

Blending fantastical adventure with social commentary, this audiobook is both entertaining and thought-provoking—an imaginative predecessor to modern speculative fiction. Perfect for fans of Jules Verne, Voltaire, and early Enlightenment satire.
