About this listen
Is your life real or is the world you live in a simulation? Are the people you call friends and neighbors living beings with inalienable rights, or are they NPCs - Non-Player Characters - whose soulless path through life is predetermined?
Samael Crane, a brilliant scientist, believes NPCs are all around us. And he can prove it.
When a body is discovered in the bay off Essex, Massachusetts, small town pastor and former Marine plagued by doubts, Ezekiel Ford finds himself called in to identify the deceased. His history is unknown. His full name is a mystery. No one knows where he came from. In fact, Ezekiel seems to be the only person in town who ever really noticed him, living on the fringe of reality, and sometimes in the homeless shelter supported by his church.
Ezekiel’s involvement in the case doesn’t go unnoticed by Samael, who has set out to prove - through deadly means - that NPCs exist, that reality is simulated, and that ‘God’ is a coder with a grudge. The two men’s missions become inextricably entwined, leading them down a path through the gray area between good and evil, science and religion, and reality and simulation, barreling toward a truth that will change the world and humankind’s place in it forever.
New York Times and number one Audible.com best-selling author Jeremy Robinson takes listeners on a journey that is not only action-packed, but full of scientific and philosophical intrigue. In his most mind-bending story since Infinite and Alter, Robinson blends genres, belief systems, and bold prose into an unputdownable tale exploring the nature of reality.
In the audiobook edition he is joined by number one Audible.com best-selling narrators, R.C. Bray and Jeffrey Kafer, creating a truly one-of-a-kind listening experience.

// A combination of two amazing narrators and a story that could have only come from the mind the 'Creator' NPC will have you gripped with the question 'Is this real?'.
//Jeffer Keffer and R C Bray are a great duo in this keeping the story going strong without overshadowing eachother.
// The story is great and enjoyable throughout but also felt short, which had me feeling that I was an NPC along for the ride with these characters.

Jeremy Robinson writes a very good book, however, and in NPC , which is told in the first person from the altering points of view of the two main protagonists, he has also engaged two of the best narrators, A.C.Bray and Jeffrey Kafer, to each perform one of them so that the contrast of their voices instantly tells the listener who it is that is talking. No need to add that both performances were outstanding - well paced and intoned, read with understanding of the text, and so on - they always are. And for this reader, they carried the story through those less than fascinating moments, previously mentioned.
Overall, I enjoyed this book. It is hard not to with the power of Robinson's writing and the expression of his words through Bray and Kafer's delivery. And for readers with a curiosity about the nature and reality of Reality, this is another stepping stone in the pathway of consideration, or, possibly, discovery. And for them, NPC is recommended

Interesting premise but...

Overall I liked it. obviously the performance was top rate and having two narrators, Bray for the Pastor Ezekiel and Kafer for his counterpart Samael (names whose history already bring a lot to the table) was an excellent touch.

I can’t get enough of them. It really doesn’t matter which side of the coin you sit (if either), it gets you thinking about this crazy world.
Worth a listen.
Along for the ride
