The first story, ‘May Luck Be With You’ & the last, ‘Mission Of Mercy’ were both good stories and were both well narrated. Other than that though the Anthology was a waste of time, I skipped all of the other books due to the poor narration and/or poor recording quality. Even with good quality audio and narration I doubt I’d have continued with the rest.

May Luck Be With You 4/5 story 4/5 narration
Mission Of Mercy 4/5 story 3/5 narration
The rest 0 since I didn’t finish (barely started) any of them.

Poor, though the First & Last were both good

Wow this shouldn’t of been so hard work to endure some of the voices and lame stories. All a question of taste and lucky I could skip many chapters
