Eden


Read by Phil Rossi

(4.1 stars; 396 reviews)

The tree is beautiful and they call her Eden. Her branches reach for the stars. She is like all other trees on planet Earth save for her enormous size. Still, she has leaves and she has bark. She turns sunlight into life. But this tree does not sprout from the dirt. Eden fills the sky, high in orbit above the blue expanse of Uranus. There she changes humanity's very concept of extraterrestrial life. Dr. Malcolm Green is sent to Eden to audit a science team studying this extraordinary tree from the dark confines of space station Lola. But with unexplainable accidents plaguing the team, tensions are mounting between scientists and custodial staff. Is there a future for this project and Lola? Only Malcolm Green can make that call. From the second he sets foot on Lola, Malcolm’s own future becomes at stake. He soon finds that love, friendship, and his own mortality tremble like a leaf at the sound of Eden's call.

Eden is the latest podcast fiction offering from Phil Rossi, author of Crescent and Notes from the Vault.

Great tale. Really well read and the music and sound effects added just the right atmosphere without detracting from the story. I'm definitely going to listen to the other stories by this author.

I just listened to Eden for a second time. A lovely novella...as I listen to Rossi's books, it strikes me that they are intended for those of us not afraid to think as we are being entertained. Rossi stimulates the imagination in a very unique sort of way, leaving bigger ...

I must say this is the first podiobook that I did not love. It felt like there was so much more that could have been added to the story. I also found some of the reading a bit annoying. I know this is a personal preference but when someone is ...

Beautifully performed. Phil's tone of voice and diction adds to the listening experience. The story is well written and draws one in immediately. It's magical, realism to me and sits in both worlds of science fiction and mythical writing. The music originally composed, OMG, it is absolutely serene, beautiful, and ...

This is a good story, well written and well read. I like how Phil Rossi can put a sense of darkness and foreboding in his works, it really enhances the atmosphere of the writing.

Good story, sometimes the nasal voice is a bit immersion breaking, nothing to bad thou. Worth the listen, left me with more questions than answers, not always a bad thing i guess.
