The ORIGINAL originals were the radio episodes, and I think some of the inconsistency in later books especially was in large part due to the fact that the author had outgrown the whimsicality of the very early episodes. For me, the first 3 books remain strong favorites, with the last 3 less so. One thing that remained consistent was his remarkable near-prescience about technological developments that didn't become reality until decades later.
