I was also a non-reader-of-text-Benny so these were also totally new to me. I was kind of afraid that I might get lost with references to things I either didn't know or had forgotten about, but it was fine. A rather cracking set, the kind that when the last track ends, you want there to be more to follow.

I really enjoyed this! I did not know the stories in print form previously and only just recently have gotten into Bernice Summerfield. These are some quite interesting stories, read Lisa Bowerman who does a great job. Most of the stories are not straightforward, but more of an experimental/ non-linear type of story-telling. This is a big plus for me since I really enjoy experimental stories. So if you like Benny and are open for unusual stories, this is for you. Recommended. Love Benny and Lisa is fantastic!

I listened to the first two stories of the set and while I liked the Ben Aaronovich story, I loved the Rob Shearman one. The kind of love where I got where I was going but sat in the car for another 10 minutes to finish out the reading.

My take on this varied collection is up at CultBox - some stories stronger than others; loved the Aaronovitch tales and the brief Terrance Dicks one particularly.

I enjoyed listening to this set of stories. Will need to do a re-listen.

I did re-listen to this recently and enjoyed it even more the second time. And reading through this thread, I realized I have the books all these stories are from, but I've yet to get around to reading them.
