Great Circle is an audio adventure produced and narrated by Chris Brookes for the SoundTrek imprint of Battery Radio. Great Circle brings you a 100,000 year journey in digital stereo with original field-sound and interviews recorded in Europe and North America.

When the Vikings sailed to the Americas and met the inhabitants in 1000 A.D. the human race came full circle... in Newfoundland. In Great Circle ancient Norse sagas and modern scientific evidence bring to life the Viking Discovery of the Americas.

This award-winning historical documentary is designed to be enjoyed by listeners at home or on the road (more specifically, the road up Newfoundland's Great Northern Peninsula).
