Gelesen von der markanten Stimme Benjamin Werners, entführt dieses Hörbuch Sie in eine Welt am Rande des Untergangs. Die Geschichte folgt einem Mann, der Nacht für Nacht denselben traumatischen Traum erlebt – einen Traum von einem verheerenden Krieg, der die Zivilisation zu zerstören droht.

"A Dream of Armageddon" is a short story by H. G. Wells which was first published in 1901 in the British weekly magazine Black and White. The story opens aboard a train, when an unwell-looking man strikes up a conversation with the narrator when he sees him reading a book about dreams. The white-faced man says that he has little time for dream analysis because, he says, his dreams are killing him.

Bei einer Zugfahrt kommen zwei Männer miteinander ins Gespräch, während dessen der ältere ausführlich über einen Traum berichtet, der ihn durch seinen Realismus an den Grenzen und Vorstellungen der Wirklichkeit zweifeln lässt. Er schildert darin die Vision eines zukünftigen grausamen Krieges, in welchem die 100%ig patriotischen Schafsköpfe von ihren politischen Führern zu unmenschlichen Bestien aufgewiegelt und neuartige Kriegsmaschinerien eingesetzt werden. Wells reflektiert in dieser Erzählung seine Vorahnung des ersten Weltkriegs.

Time is a very fluid thing, no one really has a grasp on it other than maybe how to measure it. As the maestro of the Day by Day Armageddon Universe, I have the latitude of being in control of that time. I can adjust the slider either direction, moving the timeline back and forth along the continuum. This is one of the perks of creation, the benefit in constructing something (albeit small) from nothing. Sort of makes you wonder what the maestro of the universe is up to, no? You have again stumbled upon a ticket with service through the apocalyptic wastes, but this time the train is a little bit older, a little more beat up, and maybe a little wiser. Keep your doors locked.
