The First Men in the Moon: An anti-gravity invention, an impossible voyage, and a terrifying discovery on the dark side of a lunar crater.

When humanity finally breaks the bonds of Earth, what unprecedented terrors and wonders await us in the void?

A bankrupt businessman seeking quiet solitude in the English countryside accidentally stumbles upon the eccentric scientist Mr. Cavor—a man on the brink of an earth-shattering discovery. Through sheer obsession and an explosive accident, they create 'Cavorite,' a miraculous substance capable of defying gravity entirely. But theoretical physics quickly spirals into an incredibly dangerous reality when Cavor insists they use his invention to launch themselves toward the heavens.

In The First Men in the Moon, Cathleen King crafts an immersive, high-stakes voyage across the vast ocean of space. Enclosed in a fragile glass-and-steel sphere, the two unlikely companions witness the jaw-dropping spectacle of an airless world, the ferocious dawn of a lunar day, and the miraculous, terrifyingly rapid growth of an alien ecology.

But survival on the moon is more than just outlasting the bitter cold and the blistering sun. As the two men test their newfound, weightless strength, they make a fatal miscalculation—losing the very ship that brought them there. And beneath their feet, an ominous, mechanical booming begins to echo from the subterranean depths. A gripping masterwork of scientific curiosity and thrilling survival, this audiobook will change the way you look at the night sky forever.
