WHERE THE AXE IS BURIED

It takes just the right narrator to weave a story of the world ending. Eunice Wong proves up to the task in this fascinating audiobook. In Naylor's gripping cybernetic thriller, governments across Europe start to crumble when their AI leaders begin to fail. Wong skillfully brings to life a handful of characters who get caught up in the turmoil of a deteriorating Europe. She radiates the characters' confusion as they struggle to reunite with their loved ones against a dangerous backdrop. Wong also animates the vile human political powers who are in large part responsible for this chaos. This production is timely, with technology propping up authoritarian governments. That relevance seeps through, thanks to Wong's versatile performance. D.E.M. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2025]
