About this audiobook
Two unlikely inventors journey to the lunar surface using a gravity-defying substance, only to discover a sophisticated civilization living beneath the crust. What begins as a scientific expedition turns into a nightmare of captivity and ideological conflict with the insect-like Selenites. It is a pioneering adventure that questions the ethics of colonization and the definition of humanity.
