About this listen

A man awakens, adrift in deep space, with little memory of who he is - only to discover that he is the commander of a space mission; the rest of the crew is gone; and he is apparently a writer of some small renown named Neil Gaiman.

The Neil Gaiman at the End of the Universe is perfect for fans of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and Black Mirror. It stars Neil Gaiman as... well, you know, and Jewel Staite (Firefly; Stargate Atlantis), and is written by Arvind Ethan David, executive producer of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.

Please note: Proceeds obtained by the producer from sales of this audio project will benefit This Is My Brave, a nonprofit organization that seeks to break the stigma of mental illness, alcoholism and substance abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and more through the power of live storytelling.

Kinda makes me miss the original story at the end, would've loved to see where it went if the story didnt end the way it did. Loved the astronaut parts, not the twist. But great narration by Neil.

Great story, disappointing finish.

Interesting short sci-fi story which benefited from Neil Gaiman’s narration. I thought the multiple narrators played well off each other.

This is a very short quirky sci-fi story which will appeal to Neil Gaiman fans. A space voyager wakes up with amnesia and tries to work out his identity and mission by reading Neil Gaiman novels. Neil was obviously a good sport and competently narrated the audio with Jewel Staite.

Diehard Neil Gaiman fans will like this!

Enjoyed the theme of this considering how everyone in the world is dealing with isolation and lack of interaction. Only wish it was longer.

Love books that have effects close your eyes while listening to the book and try and picture the motions of what he is reading if that makes sense

Close your eyes and listen picture the words

For Neil Gaiman fans, ever wondering what it would be like if your favourite author woke up in a space craft not knowing who he is. This would be the perfect enjoyment pieces, it's very humourous with a really good plot twist at the end

Who is Neil Gaiman?
