Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is an incredible set of Sci Fi Radio
Review: Modern science fiction radio at its best. I heard many of these on NPR originally and can't wait to get my hands on this set. Apperently the CD version doesn't actually exist 3 weeks and AMZ still hasn't shipped this. Has anyone seen this on CD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unprecedented excellence
Review: The best sci-fi radio drama I've ever heard, this volume anthologizes selections from an NPR series that ran in 1999-2000. All stories take place in the future. Lushly and meticulously produced, wonderful acting and nicely written, these plays of various lengths dramatize stories by greats such as Butler, Heinlein, Vonnegut and Bradbury, plus the stage play R.U.R., an international hit of the 1920s that gave us the word "robot." The sheer breadth of themes -- mensturation, over-population, miscegenation, scholarly folly, etc., etc. -- is astonishing, not to mention the mix of styles. Ellison, who introduces the stories, is his usual annoying self, but (thank God!) uncharacteristically brief.

Rating: 5 stars
