Nightflyers

A classic novella from the #1 bestselling author of A Game of Thronesamp;mdash;a chilling mystery set on a seemingly haunted spaceship, soon to be an original series on SYFY.

This is the definitive audio edition of an electrifying tale that combines the deep-space thrills of Alien, the psychological horror of The Shining, and, of course, the inimitable vision of George R. R. Martin.

When a scientific expedition is launched to study a mysterious alien race, the only ship available is the Nightflyer, a fully autonomous vessel manned by a single human. But Captain Royd Eris remains locked away, interacting with his passengers only as a disembodied voiceamp;mdash;or a projected hologram no more substantial than a ghost.

Yet that's not the only reason the ship seems haunted. The team's telepath, Thale Lasamer, senses another presence aboard the Nightflyeramp;mdash;something dangerous, volatile, and alien. Captain Eris claims to know nothing about the elusive intruder, and when someone, or something, begins killing off the expedition's members, he's unableamp;mdash;or unwillingamp;mdash;to stem the bloody tide.

Only Melantha Jhirl, a genetically enhanced outcast with greater strength, stamina, and intelligence than other humans, has a chance of solving the mysteryamp;mdash;and stopping the malevolent being that's wiping out her shipmates.

But first she has to keep herself alive.
