“Shadowrun with a conscience.”— Hugo Award-winning author Jim. C Hines
“LUXURIATES in the intricate beauty that is technology, exults in the mechanics of cyberpunk. And it does all this while being a ROM-COM with a lot of EXPLOSIONS.” —Cassandra Khaw, finalist for the British Fantasy and Locus Awards for Hammers on Bone
The story is well paced with a good mix of action sequences and context setting.
It's easy to find initial story development derivative or familiar, but there are topics around A.I., automation and mental health to keep the story interesting and by the end original. Arguably some of the topics could have been explored further but appreciate this would have distracted from the core story.
Key characters are well written with good chemistry.
I thought the narration by Tim Campbell was good with character voices suited to their personalities and differentiated.
Thoroughly enjoyed the audio book.
