  • Outstanding in so many ways

    Original, Quirky, Engaging and Fun. Also beautifully crafted. The three narrators are outstanding: Their voice work is brilliant, and their timing is flawless. It’s a real treat for the ears. I truly love this podcast.

This was my first sci-fi podcast and it has ruined me for ever finding one as good! So creative, immersive, absurd and down right brilliant!

Merlin is detached and unenjoyable. Cleo is great, actually, and I relate to her a LOT. Ironically, Rawfeild is one o... more
