About This Audiobook

When Earth's corporate overlords decide to evict the colonists of New Sonora, they transform the violent campaign into a premium gaming experience. Remote players pilot deadly war machines from the comfort of their homes, treating the destruction of Oliver Lewis's world as entertainment worth paying for. Armed with little more than aging agricultural bots, a grandfather's mysterious manual, and desperate ingenuity, Oliver and his fellow settlers must defend their frontier planet against an enemy that views their lives as nothing more than point values in an elaborate game.

Travis Baldree and Jeff Hays deliver a masterful dual narration that captures both the intimate human stakes and the explosive action sequences with equal skill. Their distinct vocal styles create clear character differentiation while maintaining seamless transitions between perspectives, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the colonists' increasingly desperate struggle. The narrators expertly balance Dinniman's signature blend of humor and high-stakes tension, while their dynamic pacing transforms complex battle sequences and emotional character moments into a thoroughly engaging audio experience that showcases why this story thrives in the spoken format.
