About this listen
The Quantum Bomb of 2015 changed everything. The fabric that kept the universe's different dimensions apart was torn and now, six years later, the people of earth exist in uneasy company with the inhabitants of, amongst others, the elfin, elemental, and demonic realms. Magic is real and can be even more dangerous than technology.
Elves are exotic, erotic, dangerous, and really bored with the constant Lord of the Rings references. Elementals are a law unto themselves and demons are best left well to themselves.
Special agent Lila Black used to be pretty, but now she's not so sure. Her body is more than half restless carbon and metal alloy machinery, a machine she's barely in control of. It goes into combat mode, enough weapons for a small army springing from within itself, at the merest provocation.
As for her heart, well, ever since being drawn into a game by the elfin rockstar Zal (lead singer of the No Shows), who she's been assigned to protect, she's not even sure she can trust that any more either.

However . If you can find the American narrated version by Mel..(something) is far better by audio frontiers . It should never have been read British for something that takes place in Americans mainly .
The sultry and buttery voice of sorcha comes s across as a imitation of Big Momma from Big Mommas house (movie )
Just because a demon has midnight black skin does not mean they should be read and sound as a black African accent . It does not fit the narrative and comes across as racist if audible read this i would like a replacement with the better version
In the Americans read Lilah comes across as human and flawed with emotions struggles and genuine personality, this is very flat , and poor choice of imagined accents in The wrong place
Great story , But……
