About this listen
Six short stories and a novella from a master of science fiction, Peter F. Hamilton. This collection includes Sonnie's Edge, as seen in the award-winning Netflix anthology series Love, Death & Robots.
Read by Steven Crossley, narrator of C.J. Sansom's Shardlake series.
Set in the same universe as the Night’s Dawn trilogy, Peter F. Hamilton presents a compelling mix of human dilemmas, imagined technologies and extraordinary new cultures.
Among others, this collection includes Sonnie’s Edge, a story of contests to the death between constructed monsters. But one has a special advantage . . .
We also visit an abandoned alien spacecraft in Escape Route. Abandoned, but is it really as empty as it seems?
In the title novella, A Second Chance at Eden, the co-creator of a genetically-engineered habitat is found murdered. But nobody can identify the perpetrator – or the motive.
Featuring a diverse selection of stories set far in the future and beyond the stars, A Second Chance at Eden is a must-have collection from a writer at the top of his game.

Good Companion to the series, but pretty short
Stone of the stories were very clever, interesting to see the conception of Eden at the very start. Performance was a bit monotone at times.

Good stories shame about the Narrator.
Great stories... Unfortunately I didn't enjoy the narrator... I think he would be more suited to children's titles.

Story is great terrible reader
Reader continuously used whiney and "outraged" tone of voice throughout the entire volume. Became quite hard to listen too. Spoiled the stories.

Average stories terrible narration
Stories were mainly average. Couple of good ones. I hated the narration. The intonation rarely matched the text. The narrator's voice for female characters was excruciating. It made them mostly sound sarcastic. I may have enjoyed the stories more had the brain not been so awful.
