Space Prison (first published as: THE SURVIVORS) is a new audiobook of an old pulply paperback by Tom Godwin! Narrator extraordinaire Mark Douglas Nelson, has courteously posted it to LibriVox.org for the use by anyone for anything. Being that this is now a public domain audiobook you can do pretty much anything you can think of with it.
Me? Oh, I’m old fashioned. I’ll just be listening to it.
Here’s the teaser:
“One of the truly unusual novels of science-fiction—a vivid portrayal of the deadliest planet ever discovered!”
