Funny and possibly offensive

Revisado: 03-03-16

What made the experience of listening to More Dirty, Funny, Sexy, Witty One Liner Jokes the most enjoyable?

Some really ROTFL jokes in here and some that are far from politically correct and will no doubt offend some.

What did you like best about this story?

The gems were worth putting up with the groans.

Have you listened to any of James Killavey’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes....He's not a stand up comic but that's not what this is. For what it is, he was fine.

What did you learn from More Dirty, Funny, Sexy, Witty One Liner Jokes that you would use in your daily life?

Got a few zingers I can use on unsuspecting friends and family.

Any additional comments?

It is what is is. Funny stuff, raunchy stuff and politically incorrect stuff. If you want a good laugh, get it. If you are easily offended, stay away.

It's common sense approach.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When two people re-unite. Can't say more without giving too much away.

Any additional comments?

Once I started listening to this I found it hard to stop. Very realistic scenario and characters that I really grew to like. Just excellent, all around.

Not the best of Pohl

Revisado: 10-21-15

If you could sum up Gateway in three words, what would they be?

Interesting, Unusual, ok

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Title sounds fine.

Any additional comments?

I've read a lot of Pohl and this was pretty good it didn't have the "wow" factor of some of his other stories and books. His story "Tunnel Under the World" is a good example of that.
