Historia
In the year 2107, the world has both made astounding leaps forward and reduced humanity to its most basic existence. While the megacorps and those who rule them enjoy lives of extraordinary comfort and ease, most people barely scrape by, doing whatever they can to keep going. Juliet Bianchi is one of the latter. She works cutting metal in a scrapyard and doesn't have much to show for it except for a small group of equally bereft, fiercely loyal friends. Still, she maintains a bright disposition, possessing more hope and optimism than anyone would expect her to—and she's going to need it.

Ninety years ago, Earth was consumed—and irrevocably transformed—by a cloud of alien nanites known as the Mist, bestowing humanity with uncanny abilities and enhancing technology far beyond early twenty-first century science. But these advancements came at a high price: Billions are dead. The planet has been overrun by vicious monsters. And alien overlords await the opportunity to swoop in and exploit what remains of Earth and its people for all their worth.

They faced many trials together, and grew to respect one another as few have ever understood, even as others sought to silence the threat she posed to their power.

The Blood Demon, renowned general of said civil war, was tired of all the fighting and politicking that had described the last four decades of her existence. All she really wanted to do now is to go out into the world and see the many lands from her father's stories. This is the story of what happens when you toss a (retired) war machine with somewhat lacking common sense into an unsuspecting world at peace.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Historia
In the year 2107, the world has both made astounding leaps forward and reduced humanity to its most basic existence. While the megacorps and those who rule them enjoy lives of extraordinary comfort and ease, most people barely scrape by, doing whatever they can to keep going. Juliet Bianchi is one of the latter. She works cutting metal in a scrapyard and doesn't have much to show for it except for a small group of equally bereft, fiercely loyal friends. Still, she maintains a bright disposition, possessing more hope and optimism than anyone would expect her to—and she's going to need it.

A fantastic cyberpunk adventure.
Behind Blue Eyes is a new entry into the resurgent cyberpunk genre, which had sort of been
left for dead for quite a few years, but is thankfully seeing something of a resurgence. As we
come to the years when the Cyberpunk of the 80’s was set in, it’s fun seeing what came true
and what didn’t. With Behind Blue Eyes, we get to see a bit further down the road, in a
Cyberpunk world set in a time where nations have fallen, and everything is controlled by three
Mega-Corporations set up in various mega-cities in the ruins of the old world. This very
cyberpunk world has all the social inequities you’d expect, with the haves and have-nots very
much separated. The propaganda machine and societal changes ensure obedience, as a
very modern form of bread and circuses has developed. And just behind the scenes in the
mega-city of Olympias are the Angels, the not so mythical cyborg enforcers of order in the
regime.
This is where Nephilim and her fellow angels come in. Nephilim is a ruthless agent of the
regime, the perfect assassin and soldier, equally adept at disappearing dissidents and fighting
cyborgs from rival mega-corps. She is the perfect tool of the order, ready for greater things,
including being made an Archangel, one of the leaders of the cyborg soldiers. Perfect, that is,
until a freak encounter with another cyborg send Nephilim on a path she couldn’t ever have
seen coming, as she is given something no other Angel has: A choice. A choice to continue
being a weapon in the service of Olympias or going her own path, and this choice has
consequences for not only her, but for Olympias and the greater world in general.
The protagonist can only be as good as the villains they are fighting against, and in this case,
Nephilim has not only rival corporation’s cyborgs to deal with, but also Metatron, the leader of
the Angels, and the biggest threat to Nephilim if she goes off the rails of her pre-planned life.
He is such a well thought out character, always seeming a step ahead, always that menace
that holds the sword of Damocles over all their heads, ready to remove those heads if they fail
to comply. Nephilim plays off his menace well, and you can only hope as the story goes that
she is able to find a way out from under his seemingly all-seeing gaze.
This new breed of cyberpunk plays homage to the classics by writers like William Gibson, but
goes in it’s own distinct direction, never feeling derivative. It’s got those interesting
speculations about what the fairly near future will hold, and you can tell the author put a lot of
effort into creating a world the reader can become immersed in, and will definitely have some
interesting possibilities in future stories. I can see this story appealing to fans of traditional
cyberpunk, and fans of sci-fi in general. I recommend this book wholeheartedly.

absolutely amazing
Behind Blue Eyes is compelling and gripping. Cyberpunk at its finest.
The world is dark and deep yet something makes me want to live in it and experience what it would be like to be a bad ass cyborg.
With tons of action and mystery. I can't recommend this series enough.

Fantastic sexy cyberpunk action series
BEHIND BLUE EYES by Anna Mocikat is a independent cyberpunk novel series. It is a story that draws on dystopian science fiction tropes as well as puts the author's own spin on the subject. It also incorporates the journey of its heroine from being a pawn of a corrupt system to being her own woman, finding out along the way that you can't trust anyone even if they seem to be the good guys. A lesson that she learns multiple times with increasing bitterness.
The premise is that in the distant future, humanity has mostly destroyed itself with the survivors living in arcologies run by various megacorporations. Olympias City is run by one and survives due to the efforts of a cybernetic assassins called the Guardian Angels. Blue-eyed mercenaries. they are created from children taken from the dregs of society or its outcasts then upgraded into unfeeling weapons that eliminate all dissidents.
Nephilim is one of the best of the Guardian Angels, soon to be promoted to their Archangel ranks that answer only to the mysterious Metatron. Fortunately, or unfortunately, she is damaged during one of her battles and starts to question her role as a government cleaner. Assisted by a nerdy computer programmer named Finwick, she manages to buy herself some genuine freedom and explores it with a young rebel named Jake. However, totalitarianism turns out to be harder to escape than it sounds.
I like the world-building in this book. Olympias City is a dystopia in the vein of Brave New World versus 1984, focused more on bread and circuses versus direct oppression. You are provided a job, security, and all the sex as well as mindless entertainment you could want. It just requires you to have your news edited, to never disobey your superiors, engage in no religion, and ignore the perversities of the society like legalized child trafficking. Anna introduces the darker elements one at a time so that it takes awhile to understand just how fully messed up the society is.
Nephilim is a fantastic character and one of the more likable heroines I've encountered in the genre. She desperately wants to be free and the good guy but is still fairly naive due to being programmed to trust her superiors as well as believe in her society's propaganda. This pays off in a way that I feel is the highlight of the book. I'm also a fan of Finwick, who is both repulsive and likable in equal parts. I mentally cast him as Seth Green just like I used Kate Beckinsale for Nephilim. Now there's a movie I would have liked to have watched.
Metatron is an amazing villain and comes across something like a Bond villain transported to a cyberpunk dystopia. Educated, charming, and urbane, he's a fellow that thinks he's less of a complete monster than he is. Despite my earlier statement that it's more BNW than 1984, he reminds me strongly of O'Brien from the latter. A man who has immersed himself in the culture of the old world and is aware of the Party's flaws but gleefully pursues its goals anyway.
The story for the first three books is a dark and action-packed one with lots of twists as well as turns. The good guys don't always win (assuming there are in this story) and the bad guys can be truly reprehensible. You won't know who to root for at times. The narration was really well done and I give props to the two who did it, smart choice to divide it between two. I hope there will be a second of these collections as you're getting a steal with the first three for one Audible credit.

Most outstanding Cyberpunk of the last 24 years
I have always been a massive fan of the "classic" Cyberpunk: William Gibson, Philip K Dick, Neal Stephenson, and Isaac Asimov. My personal preference has always been the darker dystopian noir akin to the setting in the movie adaptation of Blade Runner and the 90s animes Ghost in the Shell, Armitage III, and Liquid TV's Aeon Flux.
I mention these prolific works because Behind Blue Eyes by Anna Mocikat is the ONLY modern-day cyberpunk that stands equally with these great works. The 90s was the end of the golden era of cyberpunk, but Mocikat has brought all of it back and more with Behind Blue Eyes.
Unlike several other works by the authors I mentioned earlier, Behind Blue Eyes is a remarkably well-thought-out story arc. The author has obviously spent copious amounts of time and paid meticulous detail to the plot and world-building of her stories. I have not encountered any plot holes, areas of suspension of disbelief, or eye-rolling "plot armor" for a main character.
Everything that takes place in the novels stays true to the rules set up for this dystopian cyberpunk future. All the characters act in a way that is logical and consistent within their character design and profile. None of the characters feel like marionette puppets, clumsily maneuvered due to lazy writing or the need to force a plot device or event to unfold.
Each of the main characters unfolds and develops as the story progresses. Initial impressions are quickly revealed to be classic case studies of why one should not judge a book by its cover. The characters develop into far more profound, complex, and nuanced beings as the story progresses and they are exposed to new opportunities, temptations, and shifting goals.
To reiterate, Behind Blue Eyes is far and away the most well-reasoned, developed, visionary, and engaging cyberpunk series of the last 24 years.

Great Cyberpunk!
I'm a big fan of this series and loved the audiobook. The mood music was great and the performances gave the characters extra depth.
The story circles around a dystopian city in a post-apocalyptic, Machavellian future where corporations run the North and South American continents, where super-enhanced cyborgs maintain order. There's intrigue and mayhem and technology that won't disappoint the fans of the genre. I liked the action and storyline, which I won't spoil here, and I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

Awesome cyberpunk series
Fast-paced cyberpunk thriller series! This pulls no punches and ramps up the tension with each book. Excellent action scenes and engaging world building had me fully immersed. Can't wait to check out the prequels!

Stilted Dialogue
and way too many moments that break my immersion.
The dialogue is so contrived and stilted, it feels like a high school English class paper. the MC went from hardcore killer to betraying everything in a matter of paragraphs. it happened so fast, I have some neck pains from the whiplash.
I just can't finish the book. the story does have promise, I just can't get past the dialogue and MCs abrupt change everything.
