Mix bag but some solid stories.

This reminded me of the hit more miss seasons 2-3 had. Some of them like swarm, vaulted tomb and the John scalzi stories were great the rest were a bit meh. Also the editing was off, you can tell with swarm where it was missing and few stories were in one chapter. However the narration was on point for all stories.

Yet, another stellar pile of stories.

Yet, another defenitively stellar pile of stories with some of the best authors in the genre. I enjoyed every one of these, and the screenplays here are great too. Yet again, I've not seen the series but the stories are my firt foray, and I've absolutely loved every one of them and can't wait to read more. All the authors are on my TBR list right now. And, the narration, as always was absolutely superb. Thanks guys!! Enjoy, and Happy Reading!!

Where the rest of the story?

I'm was just listening to The Swarm when it ended suddenly. I thought at first I accidentally hit the skip chapter button but no, the story just ends mid sentence. This seems like a huge oversight, does noone proof these releases? Incredibly disappointing.

Lackadaisical Editing

Several of the stories are cut off or placed into separate chapters with others. Hopefully this gets corrected soon, as I would really have liked to have been able to finish some of them.

The story I bought this for (“Swarm”) cuts out at the ending!!!!
