In the Devolutionist, space travelers experiment with Venusian methods of telepathic space travel. They leave our solar system to discover and explore the earthlike planet Capellette of the star Capella. In the Emancipatrix, they go to the planet Sanus of the star Arcturus. In both unique worlds, they become embroiled in the struggles and challenges of the inhabitants, and much more. This is Book Two of the Dr. Kinney adventures. (Summary by A.Gramour) (8 hr 12 min)

(3.5 stars)

Fine classic pseudo sci-fi taking credulity to the breaking point & beyond. I just love these, in moderation. There's a tag team of narrators, but fear not. With one exception (apparently technical issues affecting recording speed), all are clearly understandable. Many of the narrators excel (everyone's friend Phil Chenevert even appears). That one exception is the final & most important chapter but do not despair, the Amazing Librivox included a second, outstanding version!
