About this listen

Brought to you by Puffin.

From the author of the multi-million bestselling Sapiens comes an incredible new story of the human race, for younger learners.

We humans aren't strong like lions, we don't swim as well as dolphins, and we definitely don't have wings! So how did we end up ruling the world?

The answer to that is one of the strangest tales you'll ever hear. And it's a true story...

Have you ever wondered how we got here? From hunting mammoths, to flying to the moon?

It is because we are unstoppable. But what made us so? Well, we have the most amazing superpower: the ability to tell stories. Fairy tales have led us from imagining ghosts and spirits to being able to create money (yes, really!).

And this has made us very powerful...but very deadly. Nothing stands in our way, and we always want more.

So get ready for the most amazing story there ever was—the incredible true tale of the Unstoppables. Find out how fire shrank our stomachs, how our ancestors spoke to animals, what football can tell us about being human, how we used our superpower for good and bad...and how YOU have the superpower to change the world.

This is history like you've never experienced it before.

,”Unstoppable Us" is a wild ride that will leave you both entertained and enlightened.

So grab a spear (or a bookmark) and dive into this thrilling journey through the Stone Age.

As usual, another great book by Harary

Why is there nothing on audible that tells that this book was written for children? I would guess upper primary to lower secondary. It’s a great book, but not for adults. Please indicate that in the description, audible!

i got disappointed with this book after sapiens and 21 lessons for 21st century. it doesn't feel that this book is written by Harari.

not Harari material

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The narrated voice undermined and killed the exceptional content of this book.

No idea why they wouldn't pick Derek Perkins who did an exceptional job with Harari first books

Worst voice ever

the voice was very hard to listen to the author should have read this themselves.

poor voice
