A not bad collection of short stories with passable sci fi elements.

I would just like to say that the first story in this collection of stories happens to be based off the work of Charles Dickens I'm not going to say what story but with that being said it's not hard to be a bad story when you pretty much copy an old classic enjoyable all the same with touches of sci-fi cyberpunkes themes so you know you can't necessarily go wrong.
The next collection of stories are definitely more original and a little risque I happen to enjoy erotic novels so this was unexpected and quite a nice surprise I enjoyed the stories for what they were and the elements of sci-fi around them pretty short and sweet.
Not the best thing you ever gonna read or listen to and considering half the book was a Charles Dickens I can't actually bring myself to give four stars but I do think whoever read slash listens to this book will enjoy it and also enjoy the fact that it is actually pretty sure so you don't feel too hard done by.
The narrator was good tho

Enjoayably short
