TNTATBO - Thoroughly enjoyable! A vivid concept of time modification
TMWWTTM-T - Pleasant children's tale with allegorical richness
Faith of Our Fathers - Magnificent Dick! Not a unique theological construct, but masterfully executed, boundary-pushing of its time, and enrapturing as a result

TJM - Thought-provoking. Conformity and control under the guise of progress and longevity
GRTB - Not for me
LRMS - An interesting, gloomy dystopia in which hope is light trying to penetrate the thick fog of human hatred and evil
Eutopia - The right of self-preservation explored through the complexities of ideologies governing freedom. It is about acceptance and tolerance in a world of division and mistrust

The Malley System - intrigued to read her work as a result of this
A Toy for Juliette - Deliciously salacious and hints at a primal darkness within us all
A Prowler in the City at the Edge of the World - Expected more somehow (the Intro to “… Juliette” shone a light on it)

Riders of the Purple Wage - (inc. Intro. and Afterword):
It starts apace and keeps going! It is a multi-faceted, layered, and poignant tale that could easily be based in our near future, written and released now, with little to show it as a 1967 novella. It stands the test of time, that's for sure! I found it hard going initially, but loved it by the time it ended

The Dedication, four Forewords, and two Introductions certainly whet the appetite for what’s to come! I’d purchased the second anthology in the DV collection before this one, so figured I’d do things properly, and listen in order. 2025 is, afterall, my year for anthologies
