Publisher's summary

Enter a frighteningly familiar dystopian world with the first book of a new series from the author of Falling with Folded Wings and Victor of Tucson.

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 . . .

When Juliet stumbles upon what looks like a botched kidnapping, the victim dispatches his abductors and lives just long enough to give her a stolen AI chip. This gift soon transforms Juliet from a worker bee into a killer queen. Armed with far more power and skill than she can comprehend—let alone control—she finds herself drawn into a shadowy world where survival itself counts as victory.

Juliet has never been one to push people around. But when it comes to fighting the corrupt corporate overlords, she's more than happy to push back.

The first volume of the hit cyberpunk LitRPG series—with more than a million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Excellent Listen!

I really enjoy cyberpunk LitRPG stories, especially when they are done well. I originally read this on Royal Road and thought it was a great story. Suzy Jackson is a perfect narrator for the story, making it a great listen as well.

The LitRPG elements are a good bit liter than I would like. It's more of a progression fantasy with LitRPG elements. But, in my opinion that does not take away from the overall story.

Too many cyberpunk stories are written as "dark dystopian." Electric Angel is not one of those. The dystopian elements are there but they are balanced, allowing for a fun story.

Overall, I really enjoyed the story and look forward to listening to the next book in the series.

Excellent cyberpunk.

Excellent cyberpunk. Love the word, love the intrigue, love the "system". Excited for the next book.

Loved it

Really enjoyed this one. Great story and great narrating. Finished it way faster than I would have liked. Wish it was twice as long! Looking forward to the next one!

not sure what makes this a litrpg

but it's a damn good cyberpunk novel regardless :)
love the world building and character development. very much anticipating the next book!

Its hot out in Arizona; This life will start wearing on ya

Piling money on bodies, cybernetics with cherry toppers. Think fast; but move faster. if you can take the heat that is, must be a local thing

great story

I enjoyed it completely the characters were great and the narration was done greatly

Fast-Paced Cyberpunk Story

New to the cyberpunk genre here. Enjoyed the pace at which the world was introduced. The story was gripping—I finished this in 2 days! I enjoyed the characterization of the cast and their motives and actions were believable.

Great voicing! MC and her personal AI had distinct voices and personalities.

This is not really a LitRPG—there are barely any stats in the story. That’s fine for me—I’m not a fan of that genre anyway.

I just purchased the next book and will look up both the author’s and the VA’s previous works. Enjoy!

I love it

Suzy Jackson did an amazing job and I can't wait for the next book.

Really liked it

Warning. I could listen to Suzy Jackson read the newspaper and feel a five star review coming. This is a great start to a promising series. There are some cringy cyberpunk sayings though “you feel me?” Plum please reconsider those as they didn’t really add to the story IMO. Sprinkle in a little more action and you have a real hit on your hands.

Really Enjoyed This

Not my usual cup of tea but I really enjoyed this. Great MC. Yes she does start out naive and does some stupid things but through ignorance not native stupidity. My only problem is that I didn’t realize the second book is a pre-order not available yet. Yes, I did preorder it.
