I find myself gravitating towards specific authors and even specific narrators. So, I buying anthologies to experience different narrators and authors.

Anthologies are always hard because there will be stories I don't like and narrators whose voice just don't sound right to me.

This is the first anthology that I've listened to that I've liked most of the authors and narrators.

Intriguing stories read by compelling narrators

I've listened to it several times and it's always amazing.

An incredible collection of amazing stories!

I was fortunate to have listened to almost all of the books all the authors have written before reading this. So I already understood most of the worlds/characters. For me this was a good compilation of short stories that added more depth to what I've already experienced. Good work to all involved!

Best to read other books by authors first

This book has a combination a great Authors and Narrators, but some of the stories didn't catch my interest. If at all possible, I would definitely like to see complete books on the first story and "A Twist of Fate". There were a couple other stories that I was interested in but those 2 were my top picks out of the book.

The stories were pretty good once I warmed up to them I only had the problem that I was longing to get back to another book that may have brought my appreciation down a slight amount but the fact that the stories eventually captivated my interest speaks volumes to the fact that I did want to get back to my other book and I was still able to be interested

it was decent

Substandard stories, very disparate quality of narrators. Not good I’m afraid except for the first story and narrator.
