Acerca de esta escucha
Featuring Inspector Dreyfus - one of Alastair Reynolds' most popular characters - this is a fast-paced SF crime story, combining a futuristic setting with a gripping tale of technology, revolution and revenge.
One citizen died a fortnight ago. Two a week ago. Four died yesterday...and unless the cause can be found - and stopped - within the next four months, everyone will be dead. For the Prefects, the hunt for a silent, hidden killer is on....
Alastair Reynolds has returned to the world of The Prefect for this stand-alone SF mystery in which no-one is safe. The technological implants which connect every citizen to each other have become murder weapons, and no-one knows who or what the killer is - or who the next targets will be. But their reach is spreading, and time is not on the Prefects' side.
Read by John Lee.

And it's up to him to figure out why and how. And how to stop it all from happening again.

Once Homo sapiens reigned supreme, spreading from star system to star system in an empire that encountered no alien life and thus knew no enemy.... save itself. As had happened many times before, the most primal human instincts rose up, only this time armed with the advanced scientific knowledge to create a genetically engineered smart virus that quickly wiped out humanity to the last man. That man is Ruslan, the sole known surviving human being in the universe.

The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity. Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor.

Worthy sequel for The Prefect (aka. Aurora Rising)
Panoply related stories are considered by Alastair Reynolds somewhat claustrophobic entries in Revelation Space universe. I agree with this statement, though both of them are well crafted as exciting crime mysteries stories. For Alastair Reynolds fans it's a must read, while for the others it may be a good point of entry to the franchise.

A nice story but Amazon is trash
The story was fine, interesting and engaging but i deeply hate Amazon's removal of Badges and Listening statistics, as well as all their other bullshit dystopian moves over the last few years.

John Lee is John Lee but Alastair Reynolds is more of the same
It’s not a bad book, but feels more like an expansion pack. Doesn’t really bring anything new to the table, nor do our characters grow in any meaningful way. The twists and turns are also extremely obvious or don’t pack any punch.
The universe it takes place in is interesting and thank goodness for John Lee’s awesome narration which makes it a good read.

Well, the best sequel you can get to a sci-fi
With Aurora rising Reynolds began to describe the Bell epoch of his Revelation space. it was fascinating... and plausible! With this new sorry, Reynolds brings more complicated human and machine interactions into play. By picturing Aurora as a childish personality, almost like if she's acting on a whim, brings down the all the unnecessary ceremony associated with mental ascendancy. While in the meantime, almost normal people seem to be enjoying... their adult games, they always play. What is exactly the difference between childhood, adulthood and how it relates to personal choices we make? I am sure, I don't know anymore!
