What caused the mysterious explosion tore apart the research center and spread radioactive pollution over the city? It was Stephen Tang’s job to help find out. But what he discovered was even more terrifying than the original blast.

A Song Before Sunset

A Song Before Sunset

A dramatised audio recording by Alex Wilson.

In a post-catastrophe city, an old man seeks to recreate his past as a concert pianist. First published in the anthology “Beyond Tomorrow,” edited by Lee Harding.

“A haunting post-apocalyptic tale…”

–John Joseph Adams,
Locus

“…has been languishing unreprinted until this exceptional audio edition was released. Production value is high, the sound is exceptionally clear and the reading is lightly, and appropriately accented with music. Alexander Wilson’s reading is haunting and restrained, matching the mournful tone of this short story.”
