Review: Two or three of the stories are well worth the price, and every story the collection is good

Cory Doctorow looks at robots in the most original and terrifying way: I, ROBOT. THE FIRE EGGS is one of my favorite stories, totally unique idea with a credible and evocative writing style. THE WASONICA CORRECTION is unique as a drug related sci-fi story, check your "Reality Environment co-ordinates" to read this wild story.I recommend listening to the long version of Kraftwerk's Autobahn while reading "CODE THREE"; the story reminds me of Robert Heinlein's "The Roads Must Roll" (inThe Sci Fi Hall of Fame, Vol. 1: 1929-1964). THE BIG BOUNCE is also has the feel of classic sci-fi. I got this Megapack for another classic author: Frederik Pohl and his story "THE HATED" is a complete nightmare. JUMP THE LINE is as desperate a story as the landscape they cross. COST OF LIVING takes our love of gadget to new lows."MAY BE SOME TIME" takes a man 150 years into the future, "MILLENNIUM" takes back technology from the past. These and other stories in this book altered my future and convinced me to get another book in this series:The Time Travel Megapack: 26 Modern and Classic Science Fiction Stories.
