They are a delight, and ones I can go back to every once in a while. I first read them as eBooks, though they were originally podcasts read by the author. The Audible versions are good versions, though some purists argue that the original podcasts were better. Personally, I enjoyed both. The thing about these stories is that they really are _stories_, and they actual do best as audio books, though they can certainly be enjoyed as eBooks. But they have a sense of narrative about them. They're my SF 'cozies' when I just want to enjoy a good story, and not have to worry about someone getting eviscerated or tortured in the middle of the story.
