About this listen

Shun Isagawa couldn't hide his amused smile or the fact he was quite impressed.

"Excellent costume, Dr. Hashimoto. I can tell you really put your time into creating this one."

"Don't I for all the masks I make?" Dr. Hashimoto pressed the button on the side of his mask. Instantly, the fibernetics, silicone, and mechanized shell within the artificial skin recoiled, showing his true 55-year-old face once again.

Milliseconds ago, he was John Wayne, and now he was that respectable robotics scientist once again. The electrodes were still attached to his forehead and the sides of his face, graying hair resting along his temples.

"Why, thank you, Shun. I put a lot of thought into that particular disguise."

Masque is a cyberpunk science thriller written by Brian Barr and edited by Jeff O'Brien. Masque is also included in Brian Barr's short story collection, Daemensions.

Really enjoyable story; it’s only downside is it’s length as I would have quite happily listened to much more of it.
Well written and well read.
Not usually a genre a look into, but I’m definitely glad I did and I’m starting to enjoy more and more!
