About this listen

Richard Morgan has always been one of our most successful SF authors, with his fast-moving and brutal storylines, blistering plots and a powerful social conscience behind his work.

And now he's back, with his first SF novel for eight years...and it promises to be a publication to remember.

An ex-corporate enforcer, Hakan Veil, is forced to bodyguard Madison Madekwe, part of a colonial audit team investigating a disappeared lottery winner on Mars. But when Madekwe is abducted and Hakan nearly killed, the investigation takes him farther and deeper than he had ever expected. And soon Hakan discovers the heavy price he may have to pay to learn the truth.

The only downside to this book was the person reading it used quite a large range of volume, making it impossible to hear all of the story without deafening myself on the loud parts.

Great story, let down a little by the reader

It got through about 25% of it and had to return it. Very little actually happens. The dialog is all swearing and sexual metaphors. It loses it's impact after constantly droning on. Characters are all very thin and not quite believable. Example (spoiler:)

"I'm going arrest you for suspicion of murder... Oh wait a different more major crisis is happening. Congratulations, you are now promoted to be a body guard. We can't afford to send real cops, so you're it."

Really? That's how they do things on Mars?

Swearing the entire time. Gets old.
