About this listen

The Nothing is a haunting science fiction short story by legendary author Frank Herbert that explores humanity’s confrontation with the unknowable. When scientists encounter a mysterious force known only as “the Nothing,” they discover a phenomenon that defies measurement, language, and reason itself. As attempts to understand and contain it fail, the true horror emerges—not destruction, but the collapse of meaning, certainty, and identity.

Philosophical, unsettling, and intellectually sharp, The Nothing showcases Herbert’s mastery of speculative fiction and his enduring fascination with the limits of human knowledge.

This thought-provoking tale is essential listening for fans of classic science fiction, cosmic horror, and stories that linger long after the very end.
