Book Reviews of Run for the Stars

Book Review: See Harlan Run...
Summary: 5 Stars

Harlan Ellison fiction is a treat for those who enjoy imaginative and speculative. Here, Ellison dusts off an old manuscript and gives it the audio treatment. It's quite well done. Harlan admits that as he was performing the narrative that he improvised and made certain edits, though I could not tell where these instances occurred. RUN is one of Harlan's classic science-fiction stories, and even though Harlan will protest that he is NOT a science-fiction writer (just listen to any of his recorded lectures), it is clearly science-fiction. But it is good science fiction and smartly done. The price is amazing. I purchased a used copy through Amazon sellers for under $10 bucks and have already listened to the disks several times. We need more recorded Ellison stories and they should be recorded by Harlan himself. He may not be a "professional" actor per se, but no one reads his work in the same style as Harlan. It really makes the experience complete in my humble opinion.
