 An Outstanding Collection, Indeed June 24, 2008

Re: Mr Deusner's review from September 12, 2003, "but where are "The Scythe," "The Crowd," and "Homecoming" from THE OCTOBER COUNTRY? What happened to "The Picasso Summer" and (a personal favorite) "Some Live Like Lazarus"?"
Those are in "The Stories of Ray Bradbury" (1980), a marvellous collection of 100 stories. This collection has another hundred - no overlap, which makes it an essential "volume 2" for those with "volume 1". Of course, the best thing is to simply buy all the books, especially considering that RB is the greatest writer ever!

Ray Bradbury is the consummate artist of the written word! He can thrill you with a thousand worlds and a street just around the corner. Literate and inventive! If you've never really read much other than a few off hand pieces-do yourself a favor and be haunted by the best! Some of these will hit you in the gut and stay there.

Another gift. I bought it for someone as a birthday present.
Bradbury is awesome, but his stories are uneven in quality. Some are great, some (mainly his more recent stuff) are kinda' iffy.
In any case, "The Martian Chronicles" is a much better way to familiarize yourself with Bradbury's work since it's pretty much the best thing he's ever written.
Very good read November 26, 2007

A large collection of quite short stories, published first in all sorts of places, some of them of the mundane variety, which I have taken out. A lot of these in past I have found dated and a bit twee, and it hasn't changed too much now. (3.34 average overall for around 70 of 'em, so not too bad).
