    About this series

    “This isn’t a war… It never was a war, any more than there’s war between men and ants.”

    The War of the Worlds is a classic science fiction novel that has been terrifying and enthralling readers for over a century. In this epic audiobook, you will experience the story like never before, as RJ Bayley and Audiobook Empire take you on a journey through the chaos and destruction of an alien invasion.

    From the moment the Martians land in England, you will be on the edge of your seat. H.G. Wells' vivid descriptions of the Martian war machines and the heat rays they wield are given desperate urgency and authenticity by narrator RJ Bayley (Bayley's Bookshelf Podcast). You'll feel like you're right there, witnessing the invasion firsthand.

    More than just a thrilling tale of alien invasion, The War of the Worlds is a groundbreaking work of fiction that explores the themes of fear, hope, survival and imperialism. Even now, H.G. Wells' masterpiece has the power to chill, awe and force listeners to confront their own society's impact on others.

    This is a must-listen audiobook for anyone who loves science fiction, adventure, or wants to experience of the most important novels ever written. So what are you waiting for? Download your copy today!

      “The blood is the life!” Narrator RJ Bayley and Audiobook Empire have joined forces to bring you Bram Stoker's Dracula. The first to be published on audio from a series of classics first performed by RJ on the "Bayley's Bookshelf" podcast. “I want you to believe...to believe in things that you cannot.” Originally published in 1897, this story has become as immortal as Count Dracula himself. When solicitor Jonathan Harker journeys to Transylvania to help a wealthy client purchase a house in London, he discovers that there's more to the count than he had originally assumed. A string of peculiar and deadly incidents surround the Count's move from Transylvania to London and it's up to a ragtag group, led by Professor van Helsing, to stop them from continuing. The ultimate tale for fans of the gothic, Horror, vampire fiction, Victorian London, and all that's to be found in between.
