About this listen
Incredible Science Fiction collates a collection of some of the very best science fiction stories published in the ‘50s in one volume. All these stories (with the exception of "The Goldfish") are now in the public domain and were original published in Worlds of If Science Fiction magazine. This is a lovingly curated collection of some of the very best stories published in the ’50s. This collection includes the Hugo Award-nominated story “Rat in the Skull” by Rog Phillips. It also includes an original story by the curator and editor of this collection: Andrew Gibson.
©2020 Andrew Gibson (P)2020 Andrew GibsonI love sci-fi and had been interested in exploring this collection of 12 stories. While they don't exhibit much diversity (women and and POC do tend to take a back seat-as was typical of the 50s) this was an enjoyable listen. Andrew Gibson performed the stories he has selected himself which could have been better revised as there were repeated phrases and a lot of crutch words. You can tell the author has a real passion for the science fiction stories of this time period. Given the cost of audiobook production, you can tell it was a labour of love.
I enjoyed it.
Andrew Gibson does a great job.
