About this listen

In 2068, androids are an integrated part of human life. Big Brother no longer just watches from the shadows. It's in every household.

Lloyd Salter has OCD issues with noise and mess, and he's uncomfortable with human interaction. When his ex claimed the only thing perfect enough to live up to his standards was an android, Lloyd dismissed it. But two years later, after much self-assessment, he thinks he may have been right.

SATinc is the largest manufacturer of androids in Australia, including the Fully Compatible Units known as an A-Class 10. Their latest design is the Synthetic Human Android UNit, otherwise known as SHAUN. Shaun is compatible to Lloyd's every need; the perfect fit on an intellectual and physical basis.

But Lloyd soon realizes Shaun's not like other A-Class androids. He learns. He adapts. Sure that SATinc is aware Shaun functions outside of his programmed parameters, Lloyd must find a way to keep Shaun safe. No one can know how special Shaun is. No one can know he's evolved.

Contains mature themes.

It's ok. Main character is quite cringey and a bit drab. The story highlights are anything that isn't the sex which is clearly why people subscribe to this author. It's porn fluffed out with a vague sense of storytelling. Won't get another one in a hurry

Story okay sex scenes get boring

oh my gosh this book had me gripped from the beginning. I've so far loved all of the books I've read from this author but this one really got me. I felt like I was part of the story. As usual the performance by Joel Leslie was fantastic too. 10/10

fantastic

Great sci-fi story. Thought provoking. Highly erotic & deeply sensual. Nervous narration truly painful and distracting at the start though the narrator's performance of other characters was extremely good. Well worth the perseverance.

A surprise well worth perseverance

Lloyd: a socially awkward Aussie male purchases Shaun as a plus-perfect counterpart/companion. This is a strange and amusing tale, written by a skilled writer, who can craft dramas serious and not so serious. This has elements of both. Laugh out loud funny at times, but deeply sad at others. The choice of the cover picture is perfect for Shaun.

Chose the book through my enjoyment of sci-fi, but was tempted to stop after an hour with the graphic bedroom (and shower) descriptions, but the reader learns as does Shaun through the different types of interaction with Lloyd, and the metaphor of the novel Moby Dick, how to move to the next teachable moment and revelation.

This is not a typical Joel Leslie narration, the Aussie accent, and the note of trepidation in Lloyd's tone, is a way to create a sharp contrast with all-knowing Shaun. The result is masterful and enjoyable.

This is my 6th book by this author, and confirms I will seek out more.

Will not write more so as to not spoil the plot for others, so they can have their own teachable moments lol.

An enjoyable way so spend 7hrs plus. Well done Audible with this one. RECOMMENDED

Enjoyable graphic user interface
