Five vintage Science Fiction short stories featuring Androids, aka human-like robots or artificial humans. Selected and read by myself, Tom Trussel.
The stories presented here are:
0:00 Introduction
0:41 Selling Point by Norman Arkawy
13:58 Prisoner of War by Randall Garrett
35:39 Imitation of Death by Lester del Rey
1:15:50 All the People by R. A. Lafferty
1:42:22 Lets Get Together by Isaac Asimov
No background music, by popular demand. Only my voice, croaks, wheezes, and all. Enjoy!

Stories of Futures Past presents a selection of five vintage science fiction short stories, narrated by myself, Tom Trussel. An actual, real living human being, warts and all.
Any and all voices and effects are produced live during reading with my actual voice. No obnoxious after effects, synthetic voices or filters used.
English is not my first language. There will be inaccurate accents and the occasional strange pronunciation. No mockery is ever intended.
These stories are also good for English learners / ESL. The full text is right there on the screen in a big and easy to read font. Read along with me. It's great practice!
A note about channel donations:
At this point in my life I do not need nor ask for your money. I do this for the love of the short story and to help promote the enjoyment of science fiction and fantasy literature.
However, if you enjoy my readings and would like to put your money where my mouth is, I would suggest instead to pay it forward to a good cause. Please consider donating to www.gutenberg.... to help them keep up the good work. Project Gutenberg is an organization dedicated to promoting the free distribution of written works in electronic formats. I make no secret that I find the majority of the public domain stories I read here on their website gutenberg.org. There you will find a massive collection of ebooks that are free for anyone to read and download. Most of them are vintage with either lapsed or expired copyrights.
I am not affiliated with Project Gutenberg in any way other than that I use their website.
Now, if you still want to throw a dollar or two at your humble storyteller, feel free to use ko-fi.com/tomt...
After all, it’s not as if I’ll say no to money freely given. Any tips I receive will go towards better audio equipment for a cleaner sound in the future, and I will make sure to pay a portion forward to gutenberg.org myself.

Nice line-up again. A mix of names from unknown (Arkawy) to best known (Asimov). These themed groupings are a great idea. 7 Incidently I can't help wonder if Android Sheep Dream Of Electric Grass?
