Acerca de esta escucha
Mad Max meets X-Men in this razor-sharp new dystopian novella by the Philip K Dick award-nominated author of Velocity Weapon.
It doesn't matter what you call her. Riley. Burner. She forgot her name long ago. But if you steal from the supply lines crossing the wasteland, her face is the last one you'll see. She is the force of nature that keeps the balance in the hot arid desert. Keep to yourself and she'll leave you well enough alone. But it's when you try to take more than you can chew that her employers notice and send her off to restore the balance. Then she gets the latest call. A supply truck knocked over too cleanly. Too precise. And the bodies scattering the wreckage weren't killed by her normal prey of scavengers. These bodies are already rotting hours after the attack. Cowering in the corner of the wreckage is a young girl. A girl that shouldn't be there. A girl with violently blue eyes. Just like hers.

When COVID-19 sweeps through New York City, Jamie Gray is stuck as a dead-end driver for food-delivery apps. That is, until Jamie makes a delivery to an old acquaintance, Tom, who works at what he calls “an animal rights organization”. Tom’s team needs a last-minute grunt to handle things on their next field visit. Jamie, eager to do anything, immediately signs on. What Tom doesn't tell Jamie is that the animals his team cares for are not here on Earth. Not our Earth, at at least. In an alternate dimension, dinosaur-like creatures named Kaiju roam a warm and human-free world.

Citadel is the only human city on the alien planet Edalide, ruled by the biweekly tides that bring both deadly danger and much-needed resources. But the drowning waters, constant threat of starvation, and eternal cold aren’t the most dangerous challenge. For the Flooded Forest is ruled by demons: monsters from Hell sent by their vengeful god as penance for their ancestors’ rebellion. To save their souls and return to their former glory, Citadel must kill every single one. Or so they believe.

Among the greats of 20th-century horror and fantasy, few names stand above Richard Matheson. Though known by many for novels like I Am Legend and his 16 Twilight Zone episodes, Matheson truly shines in his chilling, masterful short stories. Since his first story appeared in 1950, virtually every major writer of science fiction and fantasy has fallen under his influence, including Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, Peter Straub, and Joe Hill, as well as filmmakers like Stephen Spielberg and J. J. Abrams.

The company that holds it in monopoly, TransRift Inc, has at last found what they're looking for - the source of the power that enables their Weathermen to rip holes in space and time, allowing the interstellar travel all of human society now takes for granted. And they will mine every last grain of it from Tanegawa's World no matter the cost. Since Hob Ravani used her witchy powers to pull a massive train job and destroy TransRift Inc's control on this part of the planet, the Ghost Wolves aren't just outlaws, they're the resistance.

Wish this was a full story, but loved it
A really cool short story set in a post-apocolyptic future. The narration was great and the writing was excellent (I really like this author). It's the kind of fiction that could easliy be expanded into a full story, but is still very satisfying in its world building, characters and conclusion.

Salted earth dystopia gives a bloody good time
The mood of this one was everything: gritty, broody, and ruthless. I like that the story earned its way without relying on F bombs or the tired scene of men abusing women. The narrator’s voice was perhaps too clean and feminine for the tale, but it meshed with the writing soon enough.

Mad Max in Texas
This is one of those books that you enjoy, although you find almost everything wrong with it. Sort of like the Mad Max movies, you enjoy them, but you’re not sure why. The writing leaves much to imagination, the plot has many holes, and there is pretty much no character development. In spite of these seemingly major issues it’s still a fun listen and well worth the time. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out who’s who and what the motivation is for doing what they’re doing but don’t let that stop you, you’ll pick it up as you go along. All of that could’ve been handled better, but with a little work you can overcome it. I put the fault of this on both the writer and the narrator, more about this later. This is a book that feels very familiar you feel like you’ve covered this ground before, because you have, it’s nothing new but it would’ve been nice to have it fleshed out a bit more and taken into some new territory.
As to the narration, having heard some of the other work by this narrator, for some reason this book had a softer more lilting sound to it. That is fine, but of all the books I would feel that is the best tone, a book dealing with a dystopian bounty hunter does not seem like the best fit. This is a personal taste issue. Otherwise the narration seemed fine although a little flat.
All and all this was a fun listen definitely worth the money and the time!
