Great little gem of short stories

I absolutely loved these four short stories and listened to them in two half hour walks to and from work - they are all different, but all of them are very well written and thought out, clever, sassy and fresh. The brilliant narration by Phil Mayes puts the story telling cherry on the top. Great fun to listen to and highly recommended to anyone looking for some tasty story morsels in between longer reads.
Fabulous short stories, brilliant narration - great fun!

Would you consider the audio edition of Cold Sweats and Vignettes to be better than the print version?
n/aWhat other book might you compare Cold Sweats and Vignettes to, and why?
Hard to compare due to the fact it's a group of short storiesWhat did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
Narrator was able to swap between genres comfortably, voice was pleasant easy to listen to.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
This book was possible to listen to all in one sitting but as they were short stories they were easily to slot in between other reads, especially as the shortest story was only 7 minutes long.eclectic stories that work well together

Mini stories, tasty snippets, you choose what description you’d like.
Mixed from Sci fi to murder these will whip you along in the turmoil and nail biting.
A good mix of different genres to introduce you to this authors work & believe me the longer books/audiobooks are well worth a listen.
Good narration & tempo. A plus to listen to from me
Tasty snippets

The narration by Phil Mayes was suitably menacing, though in one of them I was a bit confused as to who was speaking.
Each of the stories had a twist at the end, a little predictable, but a twist all the same.
The first story, The Steal, related to a professional thief who stole on behalf of art collectors. His final job was acquiring an occult item from a locked vault.
Collision was about a fault in the Hadron Collider at Cerne, which messed with time. This one was presented as a series of news snippets and was my least favourite story.
In Crash, a space station takes an unplanned visit to a remote planet.
Finally, The Fall, which is going to give me nightmares tonight and narrated the experience of a gangster who finds himself on the receiving end.
