Alfred Bester Audio Collection

2 novels, 6 short stories & 2 essays

I was looking for Roy Avers narrations and found this author. I noticed that there wasn’t very many books and decided to throw this together.
There was a bit of confusion with The Demolished Man since I kept seeing one of the narrators listed as Jordan Law and couldn’t find anything about it. When I got to the end of the RNIB version read by Joe Dunlop I was only half paying attention and thought I heard Jordan Law but the narrator just said his name in one breath with emphasis on the last syllable, so mystery solved.
I added a comic version of The Stars My Destination illustrated by Howard Chaykin which was started in 1979 but not fully published until 1992.
I ran the NLS & RNIB books through noise reduction so they should sound ok.

Enjoy
