An alien spacecraft four times the size of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier enters the solar system.

Tensions run hot within the UN, but the alien vessel doesn't approach Earth. Instead, it sits off at L4, over a hundred million miles from Earth, baffling scientists around the world.

Chris "Crash" Williams leads an international crew to investigate the appearance of this ghost ship, but he quickly learns that the spacecraft isn't as dead as it seems.

Ghosts is inspired by Arthur C. Clarke's 1973 novel Rendezvous with Rama, which won the Nebula Award for Best Novel, the Hugo Award for Best Novel, and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award. Rendezvous with Rama is a classic that examines a plausible, realistic alien encounter, considering the physics involved and the inevitable politics and religious implications.

First Contact is a series of standalone novels that explore humanity's first interaction with extraterrestrial life. This series is similar to Black Mirror and The Twilight Zone in that the series is based on a common theme rather than common characters. These books can be listened to in any order. Technically, they're all first as they all deal with how we might initially respond to contact with aliens, exploring the social, political, religious, and scientific aspects of First Contact.

Enjoyed the slow build up to every step, turn and the twist. Good stand alone science fiction series.

The end twist

Peter Cawdron has definitely become one of my favourite authors. Brilliant science fiction grounded with science fact.

Another excellent first contact book

The human attitude towards an alien ship and finding one in close proximity to the earth

The idea.

Normally Peter Cawdron's stories are easily digestible. Unfortunately this version is completely destroyed by the performer, who talks like a heavy smoker. The growling speech is called vocal fry, and in my opinion completely unsuitable for audio-books.

Story could be OK, but voice ruins it

What did I like? Narration was excellent fabulous repertoire. Story, I liked it but wished for more but not sure what. I think maybe more after they returned. On the whole well worth listening to.

Good and very different
