About this listen

“We are not alone. First contact has already happened. I wanted to tell the world the truth and now they want to kill me.”

Lauren didn’t ask to be a hero. But one night during the graveyard shift at Jodrell Bank, she captured an astonishing fast radio burst from an alien race. And just like that, the fate of the world was thrust into her hands.

Now she’s put everything on the line to blow open the conspiracy of silence surrounding UFOs.

She's on the run from MI5 and a secret organization determined to stop her. After a year of dead ends and a heart-breaking personal tragedy, she’s on the verge of being forced to abandon her personal crusade.

But then alerts erupt across the international UFO forums. What are the crystal runic symbols that have started to appear all over the Isles of Orkney? Could they mean that the alien intelligence Lauren previously encountered is once again reaching out to humanity?

And if so, why?

With a ruthless enemy closing in fast, Lauren teams up with Jack Harper, an archaeologist and UFO sceptic, in a last desperate attempt to unearth the truth. Together, can they discover the source of the strange activity on Orkney? If they fail, humanity will stand alone to face a threat coming for us from the stars.

Time is running out for the survival of all life on Earth.

Follow humanity's epic struggle to survive across parallel universes in the Multiverse Chronicles, a series of interlinked stories that include the Earth Song series, its prequel The Signal, and also the Fractured Light trilogy.

Critic reviews

"Get ready, Mulder and Scully, there’s a new alien hunter in town and she’s called Lauren Stelleck. This is what a cracking sci-fi thriller should be like. Earth Song grabs hold of you and doesn’t let go until the final page." (Barry Hutchinson, author of the Space Team series)

"Made me fall in love with sci-fi all over again." (Alexander Gordon Smith, author of The Fury and the Escape from Furnace series)

Very good story

I usually steer clear of female narrators however Chloe De Burgh is swaying my preference. Great job with narration of a very good story.

Where are the Aliens

Too much political intrigue, government corruption, evil humans and a shoot out. The nightly news has too much of the same.

It is an ok story, read well and with good character development.

Sci-Fi Fun Ride to make DaVinchi Code Envious!

I don't think I've had this much fun since DaVinchi Code -- and sci-fi to boot! The only thing I didn't like about this book was the ending -- not the content but the principal that it ended. I want to hear where this story leads to next....

Frustrating

Just kill the baddy! FFS it spent too long and they all should have died at the beginning.

Excellent narration, weak story

I struggled to finish. Action without author knowledge of guns is continuous and annoying.
