À propos de cet audio

Have you ever worried about your memory, because it doesn't seem to recall exactly the same past from one day to the next? Have you ever thought that the whole universe might be a crazy, mixed-up dream? If you have, then you've had hints of the Change War.

It's been going on for a billion years, and it will last another billion or so. Up and down the timeline, the two sides, "Spiders" and "Snakes", battle endlessly to change the future and the past. Our lives and our memories are their battleground. And in the midst of the war is the Place, outside space and time, where Greta Forzane and the other Entertainers provide solace and R&R for tired time warriors.

Fritz Leiber was one of the most important sci-fi and fantasy writers of the 20th century. The Big Time, which won a Hugo Award for Best Novel, is his most famous SF novel.

This Fritz Leiber book is honestly a bit hard to follow. You really need to concentrate on it to get anything out of it (I tried playing it in the background while doing other things - and that didn't work well). The concept of "Time Warriors" popping in & out of our reality is intriguing.. but most of the book is philosophical posits without much in the way of action. The musings are worthy of contemplation.. but the book is kinda boring.

Doubtless, subpar narration from Suzanne Torren contributed to my "Meh" impression of the book. To be certain, Torren is a solid professional with a pleasant timbre & cadence.. but both her voice-acting choices/delivery + tone are a little over-the-top throughout.

Altogether, 'The Big Time' belongs in the 'Plus' catalog. This 5/10-star recording was a reasonable distraction for a quiet snowy afternoon for free, but not worth a Credit.
