When the blue plague appeared on the planet of Dara, fear struck nearby worlds. The fear led to a hate that threatened the lives of millions and endangered the Galactic peace. But the Med Service ship Aesculapius 20 with Calhoun and Murgatroyd the Tormal aboard are on the job and have stumbled into the horrible mess caused by unreasoning hatred, quarantine, mass starvation and worse. Calhoun must use all his medical knowledge and significant skills to even understand the situation here in neglected Sector 12. Can he and Murgatroyd untangle this Gordian's knot and live to tell the tale? Maybe and maybe not. Listen and find out.

Operation - Outer Space by Murray Leinster audiobook.

Genre: scifi

In a crowded, restless future where every rooftop is a recreation deck and every job feels precarious, television producer Jed Cochrane has learned to sell spectacle for a living. So when he is abruptly pulled into a hush-hush government project, he expects another staged event to package for the masses. Instead, a strange therapeutic experiment led by psychiatrist Dr. William Holden and centered on a brilliant, troubled scientist named Dabney pushes technology toward an unthinkable breakthrough: the first voyage beyond the Solar System. The catch is that the mission is financed the only way big money can be justified - by turning it into a broadcast, complete with sponsors, publicity, and ratings pressure. As Cochrane scrambles to make deep space 'good television,' the crew must face the practical hazards of the unknown, the politics of who controls discovery, and the moral cost of treating exploration like content. By turns tense, witty, and sharply satirical, Operation: Outer Space asks what happens when humanity's greatest leap forward is planned like a show - and whether wonder can survive the commercials.

Planet of Dread by Murray Leinster audiobook.

Genre: scifi

Humans have expanded to myriads of worlds throughout the galaxies but they have found that the only way for colonies to be self sustaining, was to reproduce the total ecology of their home world; the original Earth. This meant bringing the entire ecosystem, the good, the bad and the ugly. Viruses as well as grass, goats as well as stink bugs and allowing the whole mixture to ultimately produce an inhabitable world for humans. But what happens when this system is not properly supervised? Moran and the others in the space yacht Nadine find a world where strange things have been brewing for over a hundred years and may or may not survive an environment gone mad.
