Listen To The Signal
Short Stories Volume 1
by Rob Dircks
Like episodes of The Twilight Zone or The Outer Limits, the sixteen stories contained in Listen To The Signal, Short Stories Volume 1 ask questions like, “What would happen if an iPhone game was addictive – to everyone?” and “Are we all living inside a simulation? And if so, who’s running it?” and “When a pilot has to emergency land in a remote town near Area 51 what does he find?”
REVIEW
4 out of 5
A good sci-fi short story collection. Although this was taken from a podcast and translated to print, it’s a fun read and nothing gets lost from the narration. If you like speculative fiction and a variety in your sci-fi, but need some quick reads, you should grab this book and dive in.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Rob Dircks is the #1 Audible bestselling author of You’re Going to Mars!, the Where the Hell is Tesla? series, The Wrong Unit, and more (including the anti-self-help book Unleash the Sloth! 75 Ways to Reach Your Maximum Potential By Doing Less). He’s also got a drawerful of screenplays and short stories, some of which appear on his original audio sci-fi short story podcast, Listen To The Signal, which he narrates.
Rob’s a member of SFWA (Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America), and is a big fan of classic science fiction. When not writing, he’s helping other authors publish their own work with Goldfinch Publishing, writing and designing for the award-winning ad agency he owns with his brother (appropriately called Dircks Associates), and generally doing what he calls “sampling”: video production, audio production, app development, photography, guitar, reading, cooking. (Note the absence of the phrases “going to the gym” and “running iron-man triathalons.”) He lives in New York with his wife and two kids. You can get in touch at robdircks.com.
