What happens when the ground beneath your feet becomes a rogue planetoid hurtling through the ether? In this gripping Science Fiction classic, Professor Amos Henderson and his intrepid protégés, Jack Darrow and Mark Sampson, embark on a routine Alaskan mission aboard the revolutionary airship 'Snowbird'. But a cataclysmic seismic event shatters their world—literally—launching a massive fragment of the coast into the cold reaches of space. Trapped on an 'island in the air,' the crew must navigate a Dystopian nightmare where gravity is a suggestion and the atmosphere is a fading luxury. From the treacherous Great Glacier to a stranded sea bed littered with leviathans, they face a Post-Apocalyptic struggle against prehistoric-grade megafauna and lethal temperature shifts. This is more than a survival story; it is a Visionary & Metaphysical journey into the unknown, testing the limits of human ingenuity and scientific logic. As survival instincts clash and the threat of a War & Military confrontation with the unknown looms, the Professor must calculate a desperate return to Earth. Will the Snowbird survive the atmospheric friction, or will they remain eternal captives of the great earthquake? If you are a fan of Jules Verne’s 'Journey to the Center of the Earth' or the visionary adventure of H.G. Wells, you will love 'On A Torn-Away World'. This Classic Science-Adventure Fiction masterpiece delivers a pulse-pounding experience for readers who crave high-stakes exploration and early 20th-century speculative wonder. Duration - 5h 4m. Author - Rockwood, Roy. Narrator - Sarah Hazin. Published Date - Saturday, 10 January 2026.
