When this starts i immediately thought of Meredith Burgess. And then at the end H G Wells. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Not trying to be that guy but his name is Burgess Meredith. Yeah it reminds me too, "But I had Time now"..

Not that guy. Thanks. I haven't thought about him for just shy of ever.

Mark Nelson has SO MANY narrations on Daily Short Stories - Science Fiction. One of my favorite narrators!

Mark Nelson is an amazing narrator. What a treat to listen to him. I thought I had listened to everything read by him so this story is a wonderful surprise. Thank you!!

Wow! This was superb- both story and narrator! And very progressive for 1958!🙏🏼💜

I'm really enjoying these classic sci-fi writings and read by a real person adding something to each character, well, that'll beat the tedium of the largely AI generated and "read" trash clogging the platform. Many thanks, likes, shares, subscription, and as early a listen as I can manage.

One of my favorite narrators. Thank you.

Oooh, taking my chill pill before bedtime. 💊 🌙. Thank you!

No comments? Great story. Thanks so much for your upload.

​@TheDarkCosmos1 in a new fan. I dig your style. Keep up the Good work!

Ahh narration by the almost peerless Mark D Nelson 😊

I very much liked this. Noir-esque sorta film scriptish. It's about people and loneliness--wrapped in a sci-fi foil. Entertaining with a very good ending.

I have truly enjoyed this video.

Nice clear narration

Dark cosmos in the house🎉

Good short story

This is the story the 1954 movie Target Earth was based on.

Good story, great narration❤

Stark realities of life.

30:00 i see something very wrong here from this drinking guy with his slave.

Awe crap. I saw the movie.

More soap then Sci fi. Not bad, but not a lot of horror/aliens

😊

The fantastic narrator raises the quality by reading alone, but he only has little to work with. The story is nothing special, given the plethora of stories that start with empty cities. However, in its defense, it is from the 1950s. Except for the main character, the other characters are cliches, especially the two women. The ending is a straightforward ripoff from War of the Worlds. This might have worked had the writer tried to engage with the story or do something with the people involved, but as it is, the story doesn't stand out in any way. There is noticeably a lack of tension, which makes it a meh tale.

The way the women are written, cringe 😖 and the way the men interact with them, double cringe. But appreciate the free uploads. There are gems among them

That’s not the fault of the creator

Depends what you like.... Once your 30 minutes in it's like gambling, once you lose 100.00 you have to decide try to make it back or cut your losses.. in the end it's like me telling you if I like liver or not....an opinion.
