The writing is solid, excellent even at times, but is hurt by the quality of the narrator and the recording.
The sound quality reminded me of the Douglas Adams recording of Dirk Gently, which was created in a time where recording quality wasn't a high priority for projects like this. Similarly, the narrator isn't particularly versed at making the voice of each character distinct, which is a shame. The whole thing sounds like it was recorded in a moving vehicle.
Still, don't let that dissuade you from getting this title. The relative short length of the stories make it very easy to start and stop and after a short adjustment to the narration, the text of the stories become far and away the highlight. You'll walk away from this title remembering the text far more than the performance, and if I had to choose one or the other, I'd prefer solid writing any day.
Solid writing marred by the narration

There is no real break between the first and sending story and as I was listening- I was thinking, “wait!? What?”
The first story seems to be recorded at a faster rate- and as an American listener, I found it took a couple stories before I got used to the English accent and speech intonements.
I liked the first story best- overall- but I realize that I am not as into short stories- I start to get hooked then POW, it’s over. I have read plenty with what I feel is a respectable story arc- these just kind of ended too abruptly for me.
Had the author got others to read some of the stories and the recording was better- I would have rated it better.
By the way- the writing is solid- the author’s voice is fine but there is no distinct difference between character voices (one story to the next). He does a really good American accent.
That’s about it. If you are into shorts, you may like it more.
Pretty good- but not great...
