About this listen

Exodus from the Long Sun concludes Gene Wolfe's masterful sci-fi epic series, The Book of the Long Sun.

It is the far future, and the giant spaceship The Whorl has traveled for forgotten generations toward its destination.

Lit inside by the artificial Long Sun, The Whorl is so huge that whole cities can be seen in the sky. And the gods of The Whorl have begun to intervene in human affairs. An entirely unexpected future awaits as Patera Silk and the other inhabitants are confronted with the world of an alien race.

Wolfe's great work is complete, with the mysterious fullness of life itself.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Thanks Audible

I'm very glad Audible has stepped up and gotten these recorded. There were some odd gaps in availability for a lot of Gene Wolfe's work, and Long Sun is perhaps my favorite. I hope it's all in accordance with the late author's wishes, but either way, I'm glad to have them to listen to now. This is the 4th book, so you probably don't need my review of the story if you're considering it, but if you're looking at the series in general, well, Gene Wolfe is a challenging author on some levels. I love his work, but I don't always recommend it. You probably already know who you are if you're a fan.

The performance is excellent. All the names and archaic words come through clearly. All the characters are very distinctly read. Pace is great.

One important thing for me with audiobooks is clarity; can I hear the book well in the car or even in the shower? Some of this is the narrator, and some the recording. Both are excellent here.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
