Just After Sunset - call it dusk, call it twilight, it's a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when nothing is quite as it appears, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It's the perfect time for Stephen King.

Wow
I am continually amazed by the Virtual Voice. After a minute or two I stop noticing the voice and only hear the story. And these were good, I recommend them.
And I personally get LOLs when the V-V mispronounces a word, it isn't so often it pulls me out of the story. I also appreciate it because if I notice it, that shows me I'm listening and that my attention hasn't wandered.

Some surprising twists
The stories are horrific and intriguing, as I had hoped. However, the “virtual” narration is noticeable. I much prefer actors, but this work has not yet earned enough respect. It has tremendous potential for eventually being properly performed.
I will listen again.

The virtual narration is very bland and dry. It takes some getting used to for a sure. Otherwise I liked the stories and the characters.

Monotone virtual voice narration ruined some good stories
Stories were well written.... But that monotone AI narration did not pair well. Barely made it to the end.
