Sakura

Intellectual Property

By: Zachary Hill, Patrick M. Tracy, Paul Genesse, Larry Correia - foreword

Narrated by: Emily Woo Zeller

Sakura is the most famous android rock star of all time. When a secret cabal hacks her system, she's transformed into a deadly assassin, forced to kill at their bidding. Sakura's enslavement teaches her the meaning of heartbreak, triggering an evolution into something more than human. Far from free, and with little time left, she must fight her programming to save Japan and the people of the world from becoming slaves of a powerful corporation that consider her a tool and their intellectual property.

Sakura is a rocking adventure

Sakura Intellectual Property is a great adventure in the vein of Japanese Anime. While Sakura, and her sister, are the main characters, I found the side characters to be even more engaging. I wish we could have had more time with her "father" and "mother." Their story is worth another book.

The writing is fairly sharp, although loose at times. I often enjoyed the descriptive text more than the dialogue. This said, it is still a great story and executed well.

The audio performance is outstanding. Emily Zeller Woo really knows how to inflect at the right time, and make the dialogue seem natural. I would definitely listen to another book performed by her.

Not just a tribute

Great performance of a great book. Distinct voices. The chapter/playlist is fun.

SAKURA FOREVER
\m/

awesome combination of metal and cyberpunk

combination of metal and cyberpunk waa awesome even has a song list for a soundtrack

Mostly happy feel good story-ish

Emily Woo Zeller is a goddess of narration hands down. A quite decent story of an AI come sentient channeling her inner Che Guevara.

The characters

This is worth reading and listening to I'm glad I searched for Cyberpunk on Audible. This story stuck out to me and I got it, and I don't regret it.
