Acerca de esta escucha
'John Marrs is not to be missed' – Freida McFadden, bestselling author of The Housemaid
'Few writers do domestic suspense meets dystopia better than John Marrs' – Lucy Foley, bestselling author of The Paris Apartment
'The books of John Marrs have become a quiet phenomenon . . . Thoughtful, well written . . . and alarming' – Daily Mail
Some families are virtually perfect . . .
The world’s population is soaring, creating overcrowded cities and an economic crisis. A growing number of people can no longer afford to start families, let alone raise them.
But for those desperate to experience parenthood, there is an alternative. For a monthly fee, clients can create a virtual child from scratch, accessing them via the Metaverse and a VR headset. To launch this new initiative, the company behind MetaChildren has created a reality TV show. It will follow its contestants as they raise a MetaChild from birth to the age of eighteen, in a condensed nine-month time period. The prize: the right to keep their virtual child – or risk it all for the chance of a real baby . . .
The Goodreads Choice Award 2024 runner up, The Family Experiment is set in the same universe as John Marrs's bestselling novel The One and The Marriage Act. A dark and twisted thriller about the ultimate 'tamagotchi' - a virtual baby.
'Speculative fiction at its best – original, dark and wickedly clever' – C. L. Taylor, author of Every Move You Make
'His best yet. Frighteningly plausible, gripping, dark, and so clever' – Claire Douglas, author of The Woman Who Lied
'Hurtles towards a chilling denouement - a truly thought-provoking, single-sitting thriller' – Ellery Lloyd, author of The Club
'Chilling, inventive, horribly plausible and brilliantly addictive' – C. J. Tudor, author of The Gathering

Great story
Reads like an extended episode of Black Mirror. Loved it. Great production (voices sounds etc)!

Great narration
I really enjoyed the narration. it was very immersive and the different narrators made this an immersive listen.
The story was twisty and captivating but I was a little disappointed in the neat ending.

I just couldn’t get into it.
I don’t know what it was about this one but I just couldn’t get into it. I love his book The One but this one I tried multiple times but couldn’t do it.
