Critiques

Wah Hoo!!!


(5 stars)

Hey I loved these stories, well, except for Jetta of the Lowlands which was kind of boring. The rest rocked! Tentacles was definitely my favorite. Thanks to all the efforts of the readers. Hope more of this series are available soon. ;-)

Early sci fi, but still entertaining


(3 stars)

some good stories for the 1930's some kind of draged on, but all were interesting enough to keep litening. I prefer the1950 thru65 era when more theories had been developed. 5

Well written stories


(4 stars)

Excellent stories. Sadly a few of the readers are overly dramatic in their renditions thus detracting from the enjoyment of the tales.


(4 stars)

not. bad. but as another listener stated. some of the readers. were a bit too deep. which. tended to grate. a bit too much

raycyst and homophobic


(4.5 stars)

Needs to be rewritten to have the characters be BIPOC nonbinary persons to better represent the inclusiveness of modern day justice warriors. The fact that it was written in 1930 does not absolve the authors or their progeny of the essential hate crime committed by writing stories about binary white males and females who blithely go about these imaginary lives completely unaware that their imaginary existence is in fact oppressing BIPOCs in the real world.
