Nineteen humorous sci-fi stories telling of the man who saved the world (kind of), and the man who didn’t, the laptop that discovered it is self-aware, the puzzling Christmas message from outer space, the unluckiest man on Earth, and the spur-of-the-moment decision that doomed mankind.

The stories themself are entertaining even though some are pretty short. Some stores are more fantasy than sci-fi so that is why I gave it 4 stars over 5. It really is a great audiobook but dont expect every story to be sci-fi. Some might even lean more towards fiction. The benefit to short stories is that you wonder what else could happen in that universe and I hope that Mark Roman and Corben Duke continue these types of stories/books in the future.
In exchange for this honest review I was given this audiobook for free.

This was an entertaining anthology of short science fiction. Some funny, some thoughtful, one actually not science fiction at all but rather a behind-the-scenes look at a Nigerian money scammer which felt a little out of place in a sci-fi anthology.
If I had to choose my favourites from the book, I’d go with:
- The Rovers Return – A story of a repair robot trying to fix the various Mars landers/rovers and accidentally creating the god of all robots.
- We’re Back – no spoilers, but a very short story at 90 seconds long, but with an excellently fun twist.
- The Last Man on Earth – A somewhat sad tale of an elderly man whose dying wish is to be the last man alive on earth, and his robot butler that is trying to help make that come true.
- Farther Christmas – A touching story of a man being questioned by MI5 agents about a Christmas message broadcast specifically for him from 10.5 light years away. And yes, it is “Farther”.
Each chapter is self-contained so it’s easy to listen to in short bursts. The narration by Duncan Galloway was generally well done. Galloway has an easy voice to listen to and well suited the stories. A couple of chapters had issues with the production, where some background noises/shuffling sounds were audible, but for the most part the rest of the stories were clean.
Overall, a great collection of short stories. I’d love to have more of these!

Please see my five-star review of Sci-Fi Shorts, Book 2, which I purchased myself.
I really enjoyed the clever stories created by the authors.
Everyone seems to have their favorites. For me, they are:
Tree Hugger
Flies, Damned Flies...
The Jinx
I Laptop
Dialogue is the strong suit in this collection, and I especially love the dialogue in
"Tree Hugger" and "The Jinx." The character voices are hilarious.
What didn't work for me, personally, was the very short stories.
The stories were great, but I thought they needed to be read
to get the full impact, rather than listening to them.
With that said, we all have different tastes, and there is something
here for everyone. Overall, it's a wonderfully, entertaining listen.
