STARS Original Stories Based on the Songs of Janis Ian

Ten performers read the 30 short stories in this science fiction anthology. The stories, written by big names in sci-fi, take their themes from songwriter Janis Ian’s music. A few lines from the corresponding Ian song, sung by Ian herself, introduce each story. The narrators are paired perfectly with the stories. All are emotionally involved in these tales of outer space, the supernatural, and other sci-fi topics. Accents, emotions, intonation, and tension hold the listener’s attention. Alien words are interspersed smoothly with standard English. This anthology takes the listener to new worlds and old and is perfect for hours of discovery.
