Act One: Suspense
8 journalers for this copy...
From the back cover:
New neighbors moving in at midnight. A blind girl at the controls of an airplane. A crazed mountain man pursuing a resourceful couple...
Immerse yourself in a world of adventure, intrigue, and imagination with "Act One Audio: Suspense," the enthralling, contemporary anthology of original drama created especially for audio. Each of these 9 tales on 3 compact discs comes to vivid life, utilizing state-of-the-art recording equipment, a full cast of professional actors - including special guest stars from the realms of Broadway, television, and film -, complete sound effects, and music.
So, go ahead and dim the lights. Or get ready to grip that steering wheel a little tighter. Turn up the volume on "Act One: Suspense."

Sending to darkpunkangel in Canada as part of BookRelay's "Audios Worth Recommending" category. I wouldn't say ALL the stories are worth recommending, but some of them are pretty good ~

Wow, what a great listen, I actually enjoy all the stories, but it was a little sad in one but it was still good.

Taking to the Meet-Up today
Picked these up at the Oakville meet up last week, sorry for taking so long to journal - it's been a hectic week. These short stories are perfect for my lunch time walks. Will journal again soon.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. CDs have arrived and looks like it will be a fun "read".
A collection of eccentric short stories. The cheesy soundtrack always cracks me up and the CDs are entertaining in the way B movies are. However, some of them are actually pretty good, my favorites being Blind Flight and Picture A Murder.
The CDs are quite different from what I expect: rather than an audio book, it is more like an old radio boardcast - down to the ocassional insert of "suspense" music. While a few stories are interesting, some of them are kind of boring and cheesy.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
I started listening to the first story on the CD, but the old-time radio show-like narration style didn't work for me at all.
This book enjoyed a brief visit in San Jose, California before continuing its travels in booklady331's CD Only Bookbox!
