Jali: The Short Story Collection
Summary
Written for audio format, this collection of six science fiction stories draw on themes of arrival, discovery and destination.

Jali is one of three short story collections written by our favourite best-selling novelists and emerging authors, and curated based on the themes of arrival, discovery and destination. Bard collates contemporary fiction while Skald features six crime stories. This is an Audible Original Podcast. Free for members. You can download all 6 episodes to your Library now.
