Excellent. Another variation on Van Vogt's "superman" theme.

It took longer than expected :-) Good to know you liked it. Have The Human Operators by van Vogt and Harlan Ellison (1971) in preparation

[@colintwyman956]

@@charlessmyth thank you

[@colintwyman956]

I just wondered if you thought about the story called Juggernaut. It has a very contemporary theme to it. And possibly be his most pertinent subject

I am wondering about your accent and where its from? There is a hint of northern Irish but I dont think its from there. Curious to know? But for the record your narration is really good. Nice intonation. Can distinguish the voices. No jarring. What else do you narrate?

[@charlessmyth]

All the way from Belfast, Northern Ireland :-) More material: www.youtube.com/@charlessmyth
