Armageddon—2419 A.D. is the first appearance of the character that would become Buck Rogers. First published in the August 1928 issue of Amazing Stories, followed by a sequel in March 1929. These two novellas would spawn a comic strip that would run for over 40 years, a radio series, a movie serial, and a bevy of imitators. (Summary by Alan Winterrowd) (2 hr 42 min)

I really enjoyed this Buck Rodgers adventure and found it much different than the TV version of Buck Rodgers. A very fun quickly read story of Buck first waking up in a whole new world and how he adapts to it and to the people plus their struggles! Very well read and a good listen.
Fun, Entertaining Book

Good Reading, pretty interesting story. I've listened to couple of early 20th century sci-fi stories now and I really enjoy hearing what they thought the future would bring... plus hearing the beginning of Buck Rogers is really cool.
classic science fiction at its best

I always like the Buck Rogers story, but to hear the original that started it all was fantastic, great classic science fiction.
