The Silent Invaders

By: Robert Silverberg

Narrated by: Thomas Pipkin

Abner Harris came to Earth on a mission of extreme urgency. A subject of the Spirit had no right to question his orders. And his orders said that the universe was in danger of enslavement by the pebble-skinned Medlins. And that the fight against their evil scheming called for him to assume the guise of a flesh-and-blood Earthman.

But once in that new synthetic body, he made a mind-bending discovery: the real villains of space were neither the Medlins nor the people of Earth, but his own kind!

Suddenly he was alone, alienated from his own race, hated by the Medlins, and an impostor on Earth. No matter which side he chooses, he'll be a traitor, but choose he must - or forever remain a man without a planet!

Fun, light espionage sci-fi story.

I’ve read 100s of sci-fi books. This is a simple aliens conducting espionage and proxy war on earth story. Nothing too impressive but still entertaining. Narration is good. Fairly easy to listen at 1.3x speed too.
