Evolved

De: N.R. Walker

Narrado por: Joel Leslie

In 2068, androids are an integrated part of human life. Big Brother no longer just watches from the shadows. It's in every household.

Lloyd Salter has OCD issues with noise and mess, and he's uncomfortable with human interaction. When his ex claimed the only thing perfect enough to live up to his standards was an android, Lloyd dismissed it. But two years later, after much self-assessment, he thinks he may have been right.

SATinc is the largest manufacturer of androids in Australia, including the Fully Compatible Units known as an A-Class 10. Their latest design is the Synthetic Human Android UNit, otherwise known as SHAUN. Shaun is compatible to Lloyd's every need; the perfect fit on an intellectual and physical basis.

But Lloyd soon realizes Shaun's not like other A-Class androids. He learns. He adapts. Sure that SATinc is aware Shaun functions outside of his programmed parameters, Lloyd must find a way to keep Shaun safe. No one can know how special Shaun is. No one can know he's evolved.

Contains mature themes.

I really want like one more chapter at the end

I love love love love love this book. I've listened to it three or four times now and it hits all my good book buttons Everytime. except the end. I want it to have another chapter so badly. it was over too soon.

Really Good listen

I am not usually into books like this but it was a really great book. Makes you wonder if this would really happen in our lifetime.

That destroyed me in the best possible way

The story was so amazing full of heart and passion. The sex scenes were steamy. The discussions about androids was thought-provoking. Joel Leslie was giving an amazing performance throughout so good. I laughed, I cried, I loved every second of this audiobook.

Incredible storytelling, surprising characters

This is the most unique of NR Walker’s books that I’ve listened to. Not only is it a really fleshed out (forgive the pun) android romance, but it’s so so interesting how Shaun becomes himself. Definitely wasn’t sure what I would think when I started this one but it’s fantastic.

Another great collaboration

A man of the future falls in love with an android that he bought and paid for. Said android evolves and falls in love with his human. Believe it or not, I was hooked immediately.

I love NR Walker and I am never disappointed when I pick up a book of hers. She has definitely found a spot at the top of my favorite authors' list.

I think this may be my favorite of Leslie and Walker’s collaborations. Joel Leslie does a great job capturing the android voice from beginning to end. It’s not too robotic, but just right.

Brilliant performance, entertaining story

A good listen for those interested in an entertaining story about androids, humans, and finding true love. Joel Leslie does an amazing job bringing the characters to life and making the intimate scenes (refreshingly unapologetic and sex-positive) sizzle. A worthwhile listen for sure.

Pretty cute story wrong choice of narrator

The narrator’s Australian accent is terrible and common words are mispronounced which is irritating for the listener. The story is cute and entertaining.

W.O.W

I wish I could give this 50 thousand stars 🌟! I loved it so much! Definitely a top favourite.

Wasn’t sure what to expect

But I was definitely pleasantly surprised. The story is well done, and while Joel Leslie isn’t usually one of my favorite readers, he does a great job in this one. Will listen to again!

Good

good listen just didn't like how the narrator voice was like shaky and nervous
