Wonderful Collection of Stories

At times so intense, so absurd -- and then suddenly so funny, so comforting.

Interesting collection

Shades of Mortality is a collection of short stories that’s easy to get into, but quite captivating and entertaining. Jamal Barbari touches on life, death, memory, and those quiet moments that stay with you.

Mad Mac gives a compelling performance that fits the tone really well. It feels natural and steady.

There are around 20 short pieces here, loosely tied together by time-traveling storytellers, and at just under three hours, it’s an easy listen you can finish immediately. The mix of genres keeps things fresh, moving between sci-fi, suspense, and others.
If you like short stories and, in this case, short story collections, I recommend you listen to the audio sample and, if you like the narration and the writing, pick this up.
