The Sun Engine takes you on a breathtaking journey through the story of our star - from its fiery birth in the death of another sun, to the cosmic cycles of light and life that shape our existence. This sweeping narrative explores how the Sun forged the solar system, ignited the spark of life on Earth, and became the ultimate source of energy, myth, and meaning for humanity.


Tracing history from the first green shoots of photosynthesis to the industrial age of fossilised sunlight, this audiobook reveals how civilisations have always turned to the Sun - in worship, in work, and in wonder. Weaving together science, history, and philosophy, it shows how sunlight fuels not just ecosystems, but also consciousness itself.


As the story arcs forward into the Sun's eventual death and the rebirth of new stars, The Sun Engine uncovers the deeper cosmic rhythm: creation, transformation, and renewal. It is both a scientific odyssey and a meditation on humanity's eternal connection to the light that sustains us.


Perfect for listeners drawn to astronomy, origins of life, renewable energy, mythology, and the profound cycles of the cosmos, this is a radiant journey into the heart of the Sun - and the story of existence itself.
