The best scifi in a long while.

Never having watched the series, I don't have that to compare with, but, I have to say, this is the most fun I have had reading a scifi anthology like this in a long while. It is very reminiscent of classic Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction magazines, from like the 80s, and early 90s. The diverse variety and excellent writing showcased here kept it fun and unpredictable all the way through with enough action and kick to keep you reading on through. I loved it so much, I've got volumes 2 and 3 to start now as soon as I finish this review. The narrators here helped the experience become a blockbuster piece of work that will be hard to top. I can't name everybody here, but you guys, every one of you, made this a phenomenal reading experience. Thank you!! One happy reader here. Thanks again. Enjoy guy, and happy reading!!

Great collection but some were better than others

Big fan of the Netflix series, especially this season and wanted to look at the source material. Was not disappointed. Suits, Sonnies Edge, Secret War and Marlo Kloos stories were standouts for me as was beyond the Aquila drift. Would recommend this collection to anyone.

Terrific compliment to the video

Great detail and respect for the source material. Really enjoyed it the detail and the preface

okay - could be better

The performances are good overall and the stories are great. But something goes wrong with the readings.
