About this listen

One of science fiction’s premiere stylists, M. John Harrison has received abundant praise and awards for his wildly imaginative ideas and transcendent prose. Now he returns to the richly complex universe of Light and Nova Swing with a stunning new novel that braids three glittering strands into a tapestry that spans vast reaches of time and space.

In the near future, an elderly English widow is stirred from her mundane existence by surreal omens and visitations. Centuries later, the space freighter Nova Swing takes on an illegal alien artifact as cargo, with consequences beyond reckoning. While on a distant planet, a nameless policewoman tries to bring order to an event zone where ordinary physics do not apply, only to find herself caught up in something even stranger and more sublime....

Aside from the hypnotic writing style of M. John Harrison, Graeme Malcolm perhaps may be the one of the finest narrators I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. This book is weird and wonderful, sexy and strange. A second listen is almost required to try and wrap your head around it all. But unlike most audiobooks, diving into this story for a second time is no more a chore than boarding a rollercoaster for another ride.
Some will be put off by the non-linear, bizarre qualities this book offers. But if your up for a trip of which you know not where you are going or what neon bathed sights you are going to see along the way, Empty Space is a journey that will ignite your imagination in a way only M. John Harrison can.
