About this listen

Jonathan Slate, former Marine infantry officer and the Governor of Texas, has just won his bid for the presidency. When an assassin's bullet takes his life during his victory speech, he is conscripted from the afterlife by the Lord of Light, Lucidus.

Slate is thrust into the game-like world of Somnium where he has been reincarnated into the body of a parasite and given one mission: evolve or die.

If he can channel the monster inside and utilize his military and political experience to establish Lucidus' personal army, the Scourge, he might have a chance to evolve before his many enemies find him and send him to a permanent death.

Well written, outstanding voice acting that left me wanting more. Really liked the genetic modifications. It left my imagination free flying with possibilities.

For some reason, I didn't even care if I finished the book or not. not really sure why.

the female narrator read her lines like she was in a hurry. which I didn't like

lost interrest halfway through.

The premise was amazing but halfway through the book throws it out the window. Instead of the promised parasitic ghost in the machine we jump to becoming alien conquerors with a snap of a deities fingers. I'm writing this review about halfway through and I'm not sure if I can keep listening to the story when the big shift felt cheap and unearned. Especially how a deity who has no power in this world is capable of changing an entire village to suit her alien pet.

Amazing start with a lackluster decision
