What struck me is how it still feels haunting even decades later; it aged quite well. I couldn't help shake the creepy feeling there was something unearthly at the edges of our world.
or if you want a single audiobook you have to listen to Project Hail Mary from the author of the Martian https://audiobookdb.net/audiobooks/Vg0f71nk
hope you enjoy these
Mostly sci-fi, some great, some good. Most are read by the author himself, who has a peculiar style ("over the top" perhaps is the best way to describe it).
Some of the stories are classic, so I think it's worth reading/listening to.
Some are just boring and/or confusing for me, ymmv.
