PKD is classic sci-fi that can’t be beat.

PKD is classic sci-fi that can’t be beat. Stories that perpetually hold up in their quality and relevance. Voice work is solid and effective in the story telling. I will listen this one multiple times as it was quite enjoyable.

Sad when each story ends!

I liked each story. Very thought provoking! Made me look forward to what might be next!

good overall narration and great set of stories

this collection of Philip k dick stories is well red and interesting these particular stories are not commonly available and are a great addition to the author's works

A great collection with a few low points.

Performance was fantastic and most of the stories are classics. a few of the shorts I was unfamiliar with. Only one of the works in this failed to hold my attention. A must have if you're a Heinlein fan.

Great stories

Excellent stories, well written and thoroughly captivating. Only i disappointment was that the book ended. I look forward to listening to it again.

Unfortunately mediocre

Coming off the back of do androids dream of electric sheep, time out of joint and Ubik, all three of which I really enjoyed, this collection was just a bit boring for me. There are one or two stories in here that I enjoyed, but by and large they’re missing something that his novels have.
The narrator also wasn’t my favourite, and I have started to realise how much of an impact that makes on the book itself.

You know it's old when......

Very good set of stories even though some things didn't age well. Everyone smokes, I don't think it's allowed on any space ship today. Little tiny glowing vacuum tubes inside the computers abd hand held video devices. It's too bad about the war that destroyed the earth in the early 2000s. Great performance.

Amazing writing and a fitting narrator!

I've read older sci-fi, but Philip K. Dick is as good as any! Besides his stories being thoughtful, they can also have a fair bit of action.

The narrator really brought the stories to life. It was hard to stop listening to an unfinished story and sad when it was over.

super nice stories

I love to hear PKDs perspective s on peace and space travel! Also aliens! And coward ly politicians!
