VOID STAR

Reading with the dispassionate intensity of skilled narrators, Cassandra Campbell, Sean Pratt, Tristan Morris, and Michael Braun lead the listener on a dark and shattering tour of an all-too-near dystopian future. In it, humans with brain implants communicate directly with computers, memories are for sale, and a few lucky billionaires have access to "genetic life extension" that can make them all but immortal. As the three main characters and three disparate plots slowly weave together to wage a final, epic, private war on a common enemy, the pace and emotionally detached narration continues unabated. In the traditions of William Gibson and Philip K. Dick, VOID STAR offers up a gray, challenging future. B.P. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2017]
