Ten talented narrators perform a collection of award-winning short stories from one of China's most prolific and lauded science fiction authors. The stories run the gamut from a rural mountain village holding off an alien invasion to a future in which humanity's every move is predicted by computers. The narrators are well suited to their stories, with each bringing a personal touch. Monotone robots and earnest children sound vivid and dramatic, and the more contemplative elements are suitably delivered with gravitas. Each stand-alone performance has something to offer, even for listeners new to the author. This is an audio collection that is sure to stick with listeners for a long time.
