Acerca de esta escucha
In a darkly warped near future, lucrative disease cures are brokered on Wall Street's Genetic Stock Exchange. And the hottest consumer products are artificially synthesized humans that serve as everything from domestic slaves to combatants in savage gladiatorial games. For Jack Saxton, the young heir to genetic design powerhouse Genico Inc., these Synthates are just a fact of life...until the murder of a high-profile genetic scientist leads a pair of seasoned NYPD detectives to Genico's door.
As a small band of Synthate rebels steps up its attack on the status quo, Jack encounters a pleasure-parlor girl who opens his eyes to their cause. When he dares to sympathize with the rebels, Jack is hunted down and arrested for the murder. Sentenced to die in the brutal games on Bloomberg Island, Jack will be forced to fight - for his life, for the future of all Synthates, and for a chance to uncover the mind-bending secret buried in his past.

Historia
In the near future, advances in medicine and quantum computing make human cloning a reality. For the wealthy, cheating death is the ultimate luxury. To anticloning militants, it’s an abomination against nature. For young Constance “Con” D’Arcy, who was gifted her own clone by her late aunt, it’s terrifying. After a routine monthly upload of her consciousness - stored for that inevitable transition - something goes wrong. When Con wakes up in the clinic, it’s eighteen months later. Her recent memories are missing. Her original, she’s told, is dead.

Historia
On the muddy banks of the Calumet River, a body has been found posed next to a series of mysterious glyphs and bearing wounds from a ritualistic slaying. Chicago detective Addie Bisset knows only one man who can decipher the message left by the killer: her friend Dr. Evan Wilding. A brilliant forensic semiotician, Evan decodes the etchings as Viking Age runes. They suggest either human sacrifice or righteous punishment. But to what god? And for what sins? Only one thing is clear from the disturbing runic riddles: there are more victims to come.

#abrknpoet reviewed Black Rain
Black Rain is a dystopian thriller set in a near future where genetically engineered humans, called Synthates, are exploited as slaves, soldiers and entertainment. The protagonist, Jack Saxton, is the heir of Genico Inc., a powerful corporation that creates and sells Synthates. When a prominent geneticist is murdered, Jack becomes a suspect and is arrested by two NYPD detectives. He soon discovers that there is a rebel group of Synthates who are fighting for their freedom and dignity. Jack also learns that he has a mysterious connection to the Synthates that could change everything.
The book is fast-paced and action-packed, with twists and turns that keep the reader engaged. The author explores the ethical and moral implications of genetic engineering and human trafficking, as well as the corruption and greed of the corporate elite. The characters are well-developed and complex, especially Jack, who undergoes a transformation from a privileged and naive young man to a courageous and compassionate leader. The book also has elements of romance, humor and horror, making it a diverse and entertaining read.
Black Rain is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that challenges the reader to question the value of human life and the meaning of identity. It is written in British English, with some Americanisms and slang terms. The book is suitable for mature readers who enjoy science fiction, mystery and suspense.

Futuristic World Of Humans and Synthates
This book is well written with no typos that I noticed. I received it as a free Kindle book choice but would have bought it and will be buying the next book which I assume will be out eventually. Jack Saxton is the son of a corporate giant, founder of Genico, a genetic engineering firm that designs Synthates, also could be called Droids but with lifelike behavior and appearance. The story is about the conflict between humans who consider themselves masters over these non-human beings and the Synthates. There are lots of twists throughout the book but you never see the ending coming, at least I didn't. I was totally surprised but pleasantly satisfied. There is some violence, not much sex, and enough swearing to make it feel real. Several reviewers commented on the use of the eff word but I didn't find that offensive. Maybe it has become so common in the language of books and our every day life that it has lost its shock effect. Readers who are too sensitive to read books with such words are missing out out a lot of good reading. Mr. Delaney is a talented writer and Jack Saxton is a good hero to begin a new series, if in fact that is what this is. The narrator, Will Dacron, was excellent. I had read this in October 20i16 but just finished listening to it.

Disappointing End
This seems to be two sperate books forced into one. There is great character development of the main character, Jack, but there seems to be little development of the other characters.

The story was captivating but the ending seemed hurried. Even with the twist I felt it could have been fleshed out better. Other than that a very good story!

I can't really explain why. I never got into the story. I didn't care about Jack's predicament. The whole story just fell flat with me.

Starts Out Great....but.....
A futuristic murder at a costume party in a posh brownstone in mid-town manhattan. Good stuff...Good start.... Then all the stuff that is really hard to believe happen. I won't go into all of them, as there are quite a few discussed elsewhere, but I will touch on one. The main struggle of this book involves a group of clones who are enslaved (a little like Blade Runner) who want to be given human-like rights. This is all good except everything happens and is decided in New York City. Now don't get me wrong I grew up in New York and I still love it....But it is like the rest of the world doesn't really exist. Really, if the uprising in NY is successful, then the thousands of clones throughout the world will just be free? Hmm.....I am sure all the future state governments and foreign governments all over the world would say, "If they are free in NY, then we will just free them too....".... Ugh....
