Great collection of classic sci-go

A choice collection of science fiction, However, the structure of the audio book is poor. There is no organization of chapters nor sections making it difficult to navigate.

what happened to the rest of the stories?

I was thoroughly enjoying this audiobook until last night. while it originally showed up as one of the frustrating versions that we see here, with no real table of contents and chapter titles, just numbered chapters which run from one book to the next. then last night I opened it up again, and suddenly there is a table of contents, story titles and subchapters, Etc. all very nice except for the fact that the story I was currently listening to has disappeared, and one I had listened to earlier about the All-Seeing video system, we're gone. Of course this had been downloaded, so I do not see how audible could have reached out into my phone and somehow downloaded a new version of this book. audible, what's going on?

Nearly perfect

4 and not 5 because the individual stories were not titled in the chapter breakdown and by the time each story is finished, I've forgotten the title and like to look back

Great Window into Recent History

Greatly enjoyed these stories. Science Fiction before space ships and space travel were common. Stories were developed from what was known or envisioned in current time. Certainly not a Space Opera but a succinct capture of the technology and mind sets of that time period. A very good collection.

Some stories are very timely.

Some of the stories in this collection are so relevant for today. A really good collection of stones

Great Stories and Narration - Not Properly Sectioned

I’ve listened to all three books of the series enthusiastically. It’s a great collection of classic Sci-Fi. I had to drop the overall stars because of the laziness or just lack of care when putting together the audio book. Chapters are not named with individual authors. The publisher doesn’t bother to break it down into book parts (in this case individual stories) and then into sub chapters of those book parts which give much more control for selecting stories and when using sleep mode to listen to a full story at a time. The other editions at least had titles on the chapters.

Few Lasers. Few epic space battles. Many complete yarns which explore human nature.

Fools who are often extremely poorly read & ignorant of history often dismiss science fiction, however in the 20th century has almost no Literary work which at the time it was written was not science fiction. Many of these tales if read today might be viewed as alternate history.

I think however they should remain viewed and categorized as science fiction simply because this genre is the one in modern times that challenges not only the idea of mountains place in the universe but our philosophies are relationships with one another the constant of war, of poverty, Of duplicity, murder, rape, no other genre shows the smallness in the greatness of an individual.

This isn't science fiction. It's fortune telling.

I have been entertaining myself with "vintage" sci-fi for a few years now. I've noticed how people decades ago have shaped the future; either as facts, or by prepping future fiction.

If you're a fan of science fiction from the 80's and later, do yourself a favor and look back further.

Not as good as the other two

The previous two volumes are much better. There are hidden gems in here like E for Effort and The Martian Way, but most the other stories I had a hard time getting in to.
