Some classics, some dated

People listening to these stories may be new to Philip K Dick, or like me familiar with some or all the stories from reading them in the past. I think there’s something here for both groups. Some of the stories are simply classics and can be heard again with enjoyment. Some are more dated than I expected but still interesting. The reader brings them to life well so overall an easy 4 stars

Disappointed

I love Philip K Dick but the narrator was not what I expected. Get the book for this one. Read it yourself.
