Pros: Some GREAT ideas in here. Cons: Enough with the rockets to Mars, already--how about a shuttle to Neptune for a change.
When you talk about science fiction and legends of the genre, one name always pops up. Ray Bradbury. At 84, the fact he still writes and publishes is a testament to his dedication to the work. His body of work combined with his public displays of ...
Pros: Creative, interesting, good stories, well written, prophetic, has good points. Cons: Dark dystopian visions of the future, techno-phobic, unrealistic.
The illustrated man begins with the encounter with the illustrated man, a sad figure who roams the land trying to hide the detailed and realistic but constantly changing tattoos on his body. The tattoos were continuously redrawn by a woman ...
Pros: Some of the best of Ray Bradbury's older stories Cons: None
"The Illustrated Man" is a collection of short stories by Ray Bradbury.
This book is a collection of some of the earliest Bradbury short stories once he moved out of the crime/mystery genre that started his career. One of the more interesting...
Pros: This book is always fascinating. Cons: I wish there were more stories inside, because I couldn't get enough.
***************REWRITTEN AGAIN**************
I have rewritten this 2 times. The people that give “helpful” ratings never explain to me what the review is missing. I added more detail this time, and I hope it shines through in the rating...
Pros: An instant classic. 18 superb tales of science fiction Cons: There is none
I'm shocked that I'm only the second person to review this one. The Illustrated Man was the first short story collection of Bradbury's that I read. It flat out blew me away. For the most part, it is a very dark, collection of science fiction stories....
Pros: Whoa! (In Keanu Reeves-after-seeing-Catherine-Anne-Moss-naked voice) Cons: No! (In John-Goodman-after-seeing-Roseanne-Arnold, er-bearing-all voice)
Note: For those of you who cannot appreciate Ray Bradbury (from whom I take my Idsake), feel at liberty to voice your opinions at my homepage: www.kissmyass@mentalequivalentof98poundweakling.com.
Pros: very entertaining, suitable for a wide audience Cons: a bit hokey or dated but only in the vaguest sense
As the voice of the careful writer always does, this textual legacy of one techno-savvy Ray Bradbury calls eerily to us—familiar, recognizable, and relevant— some forty years after its initial publication.
Pros: creative stories that make you think Cons: none
In the world of sci-fi short stories, Bradbury is God, and "The Illustrated Man," is a collection of Bradbury at his best.
With little exception, the 18 stories in this book capture not the wonderment of space travel and nifty...
Pros: Uh.... Cons: A collection of short stories (with few exceptions) where people get senselessly killed.
I like science fiction. I like it A LOT. My all time favorite book is science fiction. I have reviewed some science fiction books already, and will be reviewing a lot more when I find where they are. (I have collected a lot of books over...
Pros: The best sci-fi, you can get lost in it in a second! Cons: Can be slow at times
The book the Illistrated Man is the best book I have ever read. The minute I started reading this book I got lost in it as soon as you possibly can. The book offers a wide variety of short stories. You couldn't imagine the kind of stories this book...
Classic Bradbury, this collection of tales offers images that are as keen as a tattooist s needle and as colorful as the inks that stain the body. Fea...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
