If you could sum up Transit Dreams in three words, what would they be?

Awesome short stories

What did you like best about this story?

Each story is different, you never know what you're going to get but it's always good. The one set during the Cold War was fantastic and nerve-wracking!

Have you listened to any of John Feather’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is my first time listening to Mr. Feather. I enjoyed his performance very much.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There was this one story, "Red Airwaves" that I liked the best because of how terrifying it was. But all of them are great.

Any additional comments?

This is a great book! And Mr. Feather's performance was wonderful!

Your ticket to ride!

This is an enjoyable collection of short stories: a Buick that kicks shopping carts into trees; a paranoid hermit on the eve of the Cuban Missile Crisis; a surreal account of what happens when an army missile base opens up next door to a small neighborhood airport. Each story is different, quirky, and memorable.

Mr. Feather's experience as a professional character actor really shines in his narration. He takes a different approach with each short story, running the gamut from easygoing, to tense, to snarky and all stops in between. It's a stellar experience.
