About This Audiobook
Blake's 7: Lucifer picks up the story of Kerr Avon immediately after the final episode of the classic British science fiction series, following the lone survivor as he navigates a post-Federation world governed by four ruthless leaders whose uneasy alliance is about to be disrupted by old scores and older enemies. Paul Darrow's reinvention of his own character allows the audiobook to function as both fan service and genuine sequel.
Darrow narrates his own story with the cold, calculating authority that defined Avon in the original series. Hearing the character's voice from the actor who created him gives the production an authenticity that no other narrator could provide, and the Blake's 7 universe's distinctive British science fiction sensibility comes through clearly in a performance shaped by four decades of living with the character.
