He has discovered their terrible secret, but can he take down the world’s largest mega-corporation before it’s too late?

Orphaned and alone, Moss is happy to have found a place in the world. But his humdrum working routines take a terrifying turn when a mysterious woman breaks into his apartment and hands him a data chip from his dead parents. Suddenly hearing messages revealing his benevolent employer has a far darker side, he braves the dangerous megacity streets in search of the truth.

Surrounded by outcasts and criminals and running on instinct, Moss stumbles onto a rebel group intent on exposing their corrupt oppressors. And though he fears for his life when his old boss has put a price on his head, the naïve man believes the key to taking down the enemy may lie inside the high-tech device…and his own cerebral cortex.

Will Moss’ attempt to fight the power cause him to terminally short circuit?

Good value, fun story, a few gripes.

Overall I like this book set. Plenty of time with the characters, good characters, very-good voice acting, and an interesting story arc. Great value for the cost. If you like SciFi, and heist stories, its a good pickup but not a masterpiece.

Ups: the voice actor kills it. Though he reads a little quickly sometimes. The book is quick, and the prose is easy to follow. Lead is relatable, and the supporting characters are interesting. The overall arc is great, and the tone and feel treat the genre with respect. Good dialog, often funny, good drama. Pulls at the heart strings.

Downs: ends abruptly IMO. Feels like it could culminate in something more satisfying. The world is a little more black and white than I prefer, though that may be more of a criticism of cyberpunk as a genre; if you read Necromancer, for example, you don’t find the same, “crops bad and only bad” sort of simplicity. The author does mitigate this sometimes, but it lacks integration with the world itself.

Is it Cyberpunk? It doesn’t have the same concerns that other forms of the genre have, exploring human nature and technology, body modification, etc. Considering the chance to update from the 1990s vision of the tech future, this book also misses a bit. No 3D printing? Crypto? Blockchain? Online Assets, Social media? Hard to imagine a future without it. It isn’t a brutal, almost YA until the parts with explicit violence and sex. It doesn’t have the nihilism of Cyberpunk Edgerunners, the digital landscape of Neuromancer or the high-tech romp of Cyberpunk 2077. But the aesthetics and world-building feel appropriate.

exceptional

These books where great and held my interest. I definitely would recommend these. Especially to those who've played the game. two thumbs up

good stuff

very immersive and good story telling, I don't listen to audiobooks but damn it was good!

keep your politics out of the story

but was all right not great but keep you gently politics out of the story I don't want to hear that trash

Fascinating take

Great story over all although some small parts seemed more like filler then actual story progression. But that only happened 2 times. I highly recommend it to anyone who loved cyberpunk 2077 and needs a fix waiting for the next game or dlc.
