Fantastic story. Stands the test of time. Well read and thoroughly enjoyable.
Deep Space is the Best
Skybolt1
Of all the audio books with dramatic reading, this is by far the best. I wish all the dramatic books were this good. The story is wonderful and you feel as though you are there with the crew.
Fantastic deep space drama

Well dramatised story that follows the development of the main character and his friends. Suitable for children. Highly recommended.

young cadets ...

... ... grow into the increasing responsibilities of mature and independent thinkers that make a true "spaceman"; entertaining dramatic reading skillfully presented with well done direction and appropriately casted voice actors; thoroughly enjoyed, recommended.
Not as good as first
Bung
Worth one listen. The screaming captain was annoying. Writing is just not as good. Don’t let the bad guys get a spoon! Well there should be a couple sequels on here…
Wonderful dramatic reading

If you like classic science fiction stories of the 50s and 60s, this is for you. All readers did a fabulous job, one of best dramatic readings I came across.
Test Test
the voices are so bad. especially the narrator. the long exaggerated lisp is so distracting. at times I cannot even understand what was said.
