Where does Robert Heinlein Radio Dramas rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Near the top.
What did you like best about this story?
This version of Green Hills of Earth made me smile. We finally get to hear the music, even if it sounds like an old prospector singing to his jackass.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
It has four separate stories. I like some time between them.

What made the experience of listening to Dimension X the most enjoyable?
It was a good short story memorable as first in the series but very much olde Radio.
The sound was a little grainy.

Where does Dimension X rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Better than many radio broadcasts. NBC drew from an experienced talent pool and backed it with good Foley artists.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The Captain was a good leader. He had to juggle priorities under stress to try to salvage a multi-pronged mission.
