Could have been an interesting listen ...

But for some reason they use an awful narrator. It is nice that he can modulate his voice but it seems to take the focus away from the actual text. I try to avoid listening to any book using this narrator. I thought it wouldn’t be so bad since it was a short listen. My mistake

Too short!

Well written with a nice little twist. Left me wanting more without leaving me hanging.

Wonderful

This was an amazing book. I honestly was not expecting much from these stories but am very glad I took the time for them.

Made Me Think

Here’s another first contact story by Larry Niven. It’s the tale of a spacefarer who has encountered an impossibly advanced humanoid being who actually appears Godlike in its abilities. As is usually the case with Niven, it’s a tale that will make you think.
