Hmm.

Favorite shorts out of The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury thus far:

"The Veldt"
"Kaleidoscope"
"The Other Foot"
"The Rocket Man"
"The Exiles"
"No Particular Night or Morning"

...so, out of the first 10 stories (not including the prologue, "The Illustrated Man"), there are 4 I don't like - as much as the others.

Dude.

Gah, "The Veldt" creeped me the hell out when I was in eighth grade. *shiver*

Yes, which is why it's cool. :D

I remember reading 'The Veldt' back in high school - grade ten, maybe? A good number of years ago, in any case.

And it still gives me tingle-shivers.

Good story, that.

Indeed!

I find it a much scarier prospect than creating robot A.I. that could potentially choose evil, myself...
