About this listen

Opal, snakes, and supernatural beings. In Outback Australia, there’s more than one thing that’ll kill you…and it’s not entirely human. ?

Deep in the harsh and unforgiving Australian Outback lies the sleepy opal mining town of Solace. Frequently bypassed by all but the desperate, there’s nothing spectacular about it…on the surface.
Solace is a haven for supernatural outcasts. A witch runs the general store, a vampire cuts and polishes opal, the mechanic is a werewolf, a fae is the local layabout, and an elemental works the mine.
Everyone has a past, and the Exiles of Solace are no exception. But when a curious new arrival appears in town, they’ll do whatever it takes to protect their home…and the secrets each of them would die to protect.
Welcome to Solace, Outback Australia, where deep underneath the iconic red earth, lies more than glittering opal.

Outback Spirit is the first book in Australian Supernatural: Origins, a magical series set in the red heart of Outback Australia where myth and magic live alongside the harsh and unforgiving land.

I picked this book as I wanted to hear how well Virtual Voice managed. It was certainly better than most computer speech but not quite as good as a human performer. I have heard worse human narrators than Virtual Voice and I can imagine as it continues to get better that the line between human and computer will blur and overlap.

As far as the story itself, I enjoyed it. The setting helped as it was unfamiliar to me and therefore interesting. There was a nice cross section of characters.
