First of all, one of the best stories I've heard in a looong time. Masterfully narrated as well. Really kept me on the edge of my bed, couldn't even fall asleep till I heard the end. I even cried. So very damn good! Edit - can't stop harping about it - if this were adapted into a movie, it would get all the Oscars in this day and age, particularly because of the advent of AI. Edit2: played it again just now. I almost never do that. It's just that darn good. Thank you from the bottom of my souls.

Please people like the vid more so our bro can get more views

Fantastic audiobook! The story kept me engaged the whole way through. Can't wait to explore more classic sci-fi tales! By the way, I've recently started my own 3D animation project in the sci-fi genre.

Totally agree. Great story & I'm loving this channel, but that backing track is really quite distracting - I thought the fans in my PC were on the fritz at first, lol. Please don't make a habit of doing it, it really doesn't add to the story and is pretty annoying at times.

BRAVO

Great story!

Good story. Very well read, very enjoyable, except for the droneing Sound in the back ground.

Hi-a Rover! Good boy!

At the book stores in the magazine section, you can still find some of the old publications, if not these exact ones. They have Asimov's short stories at my barnes and noble. A lot of the stories like these came from magazines like these. Good luck.

Let's goooo!

A damn good story damn I love my dogs

Great, but next time reading no rush, tell a story. Music or sound effect good idea really, but not every time, only to point some aspect: scarry, sadness, mecanical, happynes or quriosity moments. Please reader, you have greate voice!

There is a reason why dogs are man best friend

Yo that sounds just like Tom greene narrating this storry

That background humming noise is REALLY bad, it hurts my ears & ruins listening to the story :(

joke's on you, it's one of the best narrations I've heard, and I've heard thousands. not to mention the story itself, it's a real gem. Edit: I can't stress this enough. It's not like some _other_ narrations on this channel (I believe you know the ones I speak of, I don't want to insult anyone). I do love Theo myself, so I know where you're coming from. In fact, so far I only really enjoyed ''his'' stories on this channel...until this one. This Ben guy really breathes life into these characters, something that an AI would really struggle to do. Especially the robot character, it sends chills down my spine. I just listened to the whole story again, and I very rarely do that. And I cried both times. And I'm a ghetto dude.

To durereee, since I cannot see your post anymore. Look, I am not trying to be mean to anyone but I think that to be honest is to show them a certain respect. No, the joke is not on me. I listened to a couple of minutes and I know what I am missing. Among the thousand(s) of audiobook narrations you've listened to, I don't know how this could be among the best. R.C. Bray is so good, he elevates even mediocre prose like Michael Mammay's. Ian Gordon consistently narrates classic horror beautifully, though he definitely has 'a style'. I just listened to Tom Hiddleston read J.G. Ballard's High Rise. Theodore is so good I wish he was real. So the best out of thousands? Come on.
