THE LION OF COMARRE AND OTHER STORIES

These 19 short stories are sure to make anyone a fan of early British science fiction. The well-performed classics include "The Lion of Comarre," which tells of a dissatisfied young man in search "something more" in a future society that believes it has discovered everything and ceases to advance. Stefan Rudnicki's bass voice enhances the monologues of this story (and others in this collection) by commanding the listener's attention with his vocal presence. "History Lesson" tells of a future alien race that discovers there was once life on Earth. Gabrielle de Cuir narrates with a sober whisper that transforms every text into a hypnotic experience.
