Neural Wraith 2

Neural Wraith, Book 2

De: K.D. Robertson

Narrado por: Stephanie Savannah

Finance isn't detective Nick Waite’s strong suit, but he’s learning fast as he investigates the cover-up of a murder inside Neo Babylon’s oldest bank.

The winds of conspiracy whirl around him, and everyone from the police commissioner to gang lords warn him to step back.

Taking the easy way out isn’t in his nature, however. He’s gotten where he is by being stubborn and a chance to knock a corrupt bank down a peg is too good to pass up.

But all isn’t well with his partners, the police’s elite Archangels. A new prototype model is about to be deployed, and she has her own views on humanity to force on her brethren. Nick feels more like an AI whisperer than a detective some days.

Through it all, the city continues to smolder like a powder keg ready to blow. This case will determine more than the fate of a few banking executives.

Excellent sequel

The world building and characters are even better than in the first. The reader also does an excellent job giving all the characters distinct voices that match their personalities. Looking forward to when the third book gets an audiobook.

Cyberpunk and sexy androids. What's not to like?

A hacker turned police detective in charge of the city's android police force is a great setting for a cyberpunk harem story.
Stephanie does an excellent job bringing it all to life too.

Continues to Impress.

The book doesn't hesitate and immediately dives into a vastly complex plot. More interactions with the prototypes and mainframes that run Babylon and beyond. Great characters, plot, action, with a cherry on top of spice. Loved all of it.

read book three can't wait for book 4

series is good, they ask some fun questions that can make you think 🤔. fun series as well.

enjoyable story

Book two was a good continuation of the series. It was obvious in the first one that there were harem elements, just not full on harem. This one _sealed the deal_. I will probably continue the series when book three comes out.

Another Hit

This series leaves me just shaking my head at the complexity of the stories and characters. It’s just as good if not better than first book and even more complex in how the Dolls and those around them seemingly operate. I love it

Great artificial intelligence books

I love the way this story works with AI. Its fun to see one take on our future and how the AI is in handling human interactions. Solid book 2 and you definitely need to listen too book 1 to understand everything. Solid MC and Great Narration.

Gripping character driven story

It is high praise when this worlds immersion feels like its neck and neck with its contemporaries like Altered Carbon. Each character interaction spins a balance between exploring the world they are in further and understanding who they are talking to that much more. The dolls are of course the stand out as they get even more time to stand apart from each other (ironically given they are part of a collective). You know you have a great story on your hands when bumper conversations on the way to important events feel just as important/rewarding as main plot developments. Couldn’t recommend this more, amazing world and a cast of characters grounded in the city around them.

👍

Another fun cyberpunk tale.

I truly enjoyed this book. I enjoy the setting and love to watch the MCs interactions with the various AIs. If you liked the first book I highly recommend this one.
