An outstanding ensemble of narrators delivers six short stories, all involving time travel. Jonathan Davis' narration of "For a Limited Time Only," about a time-traveling salesman who is denied a job transfer, is made particularly poignant by his strong, emotionally charged delivery, especially as the main character learns the reason for his transfer denial. "A Visit to the Husband Archive," is about a woman with no long-term memory who "checks out" a husband who used to be a professor. Mirai narrates with a sense of wonder that perfectly embodies the woman's childlike acceptance of a dystopian world very different from the one her husband remembers. Each story is well performed and memorable, making this an excellent collection for listeners exploring new narrators. [Published: JANUARY 2026]
