Publisher's summary

Henry Kyllo is a Runner, a member of a secret society called the Inferne Cutis. Every day he is chased through the city by Hunters whose goal is to fill him with bullets. It is a secret war steeped in history, tradition, and mutual fear.

Rumours abound about what happens when a Runner achieves ascension, but it has supposedly never happened before, so no one knows for sure. Except that it has happened before. And it is happening again. This time to Henry Kyllo.

Weird but good.

Where does A Perfect Machine rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

About the middle of the road.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

I am not sure. Maybe cut down on the number of main characters.

What about John Banks’s performance did you like?

Good pace, easy to understand.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Nope.

Any additional comments?

This is an odd book. Not bad just odd. It's kind of hard to keep track of at times. Didn't much care for the ending, thought that it was really kind of bland and campy. It's still a good read and or listen. The Narrator does an excellent job at bringing the story to life.

Good start, not great at the end

Wonderfully unique premise with a total loss of coherence at the end. Performance of John Banks was as good as ever.
