About this listen

WITH A NEW FORWARD BY PATTON OSWALT

Dubbed “the most significant and controversial SF book” of its generation, Harlan Ellison’s groundbreaking collection launched an entire sub-genre: New Wave science fiction. With contributions from legendary authors and multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards, Dangerous Visions returns to print in a stunning new edition perfect for new and returning fans alike.

A landmark short story collection that put the more character-based New Wave science fiction on the map, Dangerous Visions won several prestigious awards and was nominated for many others. This now-classic anthology includes thirty-three stories by thirty-two award-winning authors, over half of whom have won multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards. Contributing authors include: Robert Silverberg, Frederik Pohl, Brian W. Aldiss, Philip K. Dick, Larry Niven, Fritz Leiber, Poul Anderson, Theodore Sturgeon, J.G. Ballard, Samuel R. Delany, and Ellison himself.

As relevant now as it was when first published, Dangerous Visions is a phenomenal collection that deserves a place on every bookshelf.

Full List of narrators: Ramiz Monsef, Neil Hellegers, Jim Meskimen, Edoardo Ballerini, P. J. Ochlan, Dion Graham, Natalie Naudus, JD Jackson, Scott Aiello, Grover Gardner, Joe Hempel, Steve West, James Patrick Cronin, Joel Froomkin, Neil Shah, John Pirhalla, Robert Fass, Heath Miller, Scott Brick, Shiromi Arserio, Thom Rivera, Bradford Hastings, Feodor Chin, Stefan Rudnicki, Mara Wilson, Bronson Pinchot, Mark Sanderlin, Tim Campbell, Simon Vance, Steven Jay Cohen, Johnny Heller

Self-congratulatory, preening commentary

I loved this work when I was a kid. The added commentary in this version is excruciating. The New Riders of the Purple Wage needs to be read. Period.

Pre-Star Trek pre-Star Wars brilliance!

I like everything about this audiobook, but especially the story content itself. I also bought it as paper book. All the stories are good, and more than half of them are great. If you don’t like listening to the commentary, skip it. Just listen to the stories themselves. If you’re interested in the history of the authors and how they came to be published, then you have the Commentary. I will buy the second and third one as well. Great read.

Very dated views on world

Some stories were many but most either sickened, bored or made you realise how much world attitudes have changed. As there is racism, men as doers and homophobic and just yuk stories.
