A lot of people don't know the history that this story is based on. Look up neo slavery, sundown towns, and debt peonage.

Superb storytelling. Love this HH short. One of my all time faves

[@lilywhite9109]

I like the guys voice. It's one of the better ones in my opinion. I liked the story too.

[@Visitor2Earth]

The reader is one of my favorites!!!

Harry Harrison, the common man's Isaac Asimov. (no bad thing)

Johns eyes…

A good story - but every time I open a "NewThinkable" audio, I'm hoping that it's NOT this guy reading. The monotonous voice and the odd Shatner-as-Kirk pacing are terrible. Please get some other readers!

[@Gothhippie667]

He's one of the best, actually.

@@Gothhippie667 this......guy........is........fucken unbearable.

[@cindythorn3212]

Can't stand the way this guy reads books thumbs down.

[@TonyBraun]

I can barely find a Sci-Fi audio book that this clown hasn't ruined.....like listening to captain kirk.

I hear this fine. The guy’s voice isn’t anything to write home about. The story is entertaining though
