Nice backstories, but VV? I give it a three 'mehs'

It easy to overlook how much a story is enhanced by the narrator. These stories cry out for Liam's Delovoa, A Delovoa story without Delovoa's voice is a Hero sandwich, hold the Hero. Best wishes to Mr. Campbell for a speedy recovery and for an equally speedy return of a tanned and rested Hank & Co.

not a fan of the ai reader.

was a great listen other than the ai. love the new info about the chars. really opens the world up more.

I prefer Humans

I liked the story as it filled in a lot of holes. As for the reading, that’s all it was. A lifeless, miss pronouncing, narration. Good thing it was free.

Did Delovoa create Virtual Voice?

Great and fun stories completely ruined by the narration software. It is the type of uncaring destructiveness that Delovoa would haphazardly release into the wild. Seriously? Doesn't anyone bother to check to see if the software actually works? This should come up during someone's next performance evaluation and not in a good way.

Virtual

If you can get past the pronunciations inconsistent with the rest of the series it’s a decent addition
