On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

Our universe is ruled by physics, and faster-than-light travel is not possible - until the discovery of The Flow, an extradimensional field we can access at certain points in space-time that transports us to other worlds, around other stars. Humanity flows away from Earth, into space, and in time forgets our home world and creates a new empire, the Interdependency, whose ethos requires that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and a system of control for the rulers of the empire.

Fascinating Premise Within an Excellent Story
- By Kurt Schwoppe on 07-30-17
Publisher's Summary
An original dramatic presentation, cowritten by William Gibson, national best-selling author of Neuromancer and other classics, and Michael St. John Smith.
The year is 2016. Not our 2016. Theirs. Earth is dying, the result of a worldwide nuclear holocaust caused by America’s dictatorial President-for-Life Lewis Henderson, a man who will use any means necessary to maintain power and survive.
Enter: The Splitter. A machine capable of splitting off an exact replica of Henderson’s world. A world where the cataclysmic events causing its destruction have yet to occur.
That world is ours.
In August of 1945, our postwar Europe becomes the battleground for Henderson’s operatives - led by his sociopathic son - as they engineer a complete redo of their history. By changing ours. Their mission is to take over our world and rule it absolutely - again.
The only obstacles in their way are a disabled rebel colonel in an underground bunker; a Marine pilot who pursues Henderson’s men across time; and a British secret weapons analyst who must accept that the impossible is, in fact, possible.
And that the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance.
The cast of Archangel includes:
- Neil Hellegers as PROF. JACK DAVIS
- Inés del Castillo as MAJ. GUADALUPE “LUPE” TORRES
- Mark Boyett as VP JUNIOR HENDERSON/ALOYSIUS HENDERSON
- Eric Yves Garcia as PILOT
- Liz Jasicki as LT. NAOMI GIVENS
- Josh Hurley as FRITZ
- Jonathan Todd Ross as CAPT. VINCE MATTHEWS
- Scott Aiello as PRES. LEWIS HENDERSON
- Graeme Malcolm as AIR COMMODORE GORDON TULLY

Great Performances All Around
I was about halfway through the book when I looked it up on Goodreads to find out that the original version was a graphic novel. It makes sense to me (especially given the length of it) but I didn't once feel confused or feel like something was missing. Quite the opposite. Due to the "full-cast" performance with sound effects and everything - this book felt different than my average audiobook. I don't listen to many dramatic presentations like this but it was just what I needed.
Short and full of grit - Archangel was a story that I enjoyed from beginning to end. Gibson and St. John Smith tell a story of a world where the President-For-Life is trying to find another world/realm to go back and "fix". We find out as the story progresses what happened to Baltimore (and then again later what really happened). And we are introduced to some really cool and interesting tech that our characters are in charge or (or get help from).
The story itself jumped around a little bit, but it translated well to audio. I thought that the cast did a wonderful job - along with the sound/audio editors. Every sound effect felt like it belonged without being distracting or overwhelming. The audio was easy to hear and the background noises made the scenes more realistic instead of stealing their thunder.
Overall, I found myself enjoying Archangel and as I said above - it was the perfect book for the mood that I was in. I requested a free copy of this audiobook - it has not affected my review in any way.

fun. kinda short.
Went by fast. Borrows from the Peripheral for it's main sci-fi concept so don't expect the usual William Gibson level of creativity and innovation. Fun, light short story. Not sure it's worth the money, but I'm a WG fan-boy so I had to try it. No regrets.

Cool reading with cast and music
Story was pretty good, took some leaps on imagination but that's ok for a sifi book. It was a little light on some details IMO. The reading with a full cast was really cool. Easy to tell what character was what, non eof the he said she said.

I appreciate the effort with the full cast but will never overlook over the length of a title when purchasing again. Paying full price or using a credit for what amounts to a podcast length is a little underwhelming in my opinion.

Shock to the System!
I haven't actually read a lot of Gibson's work but what I did read was books like Neuromancer; gritty, grim, hard cyberpunk novels that played with the mind and gave it a good workout. I had a go at this curious as to how such a thing would be dramatised. Turns out that there is another side to Gibson and if the gritty, grim, cyberpunk style is what you are seeking then this isn't the audio you were looking for!
What GIbson and Michael St John Smith have come up with is classic, good old-fashioned sci-fi cheese and if you take it on those terms you'll likely love it. Amazing technology such as plastic surgery capable of exactly replicating someone's face, even a machine that can replicate the entire world precisely at a given time and date, there's teleporting, the works! There are cliched accents, gunfights, stealth suits, corny lines and classic sci-fi ideas, in fact if you listen carefully I am sure at one point you can hear a kitchen sink making a crash landing!
I really enjoyed it, the acting is upbeat and being less than three hours long it simply barrels along. Good old fashioned sc-fi excitement that doesn't concern itself with much in the way of any kind of reality.

Substandard radio play
This cheesy radio play is so bad, I'm returning it. I've been a Gibson fan for a long time - but this was very disappointing. Hammy acting, tissue thin plot and little of interest. I couldn't finish it. (and it's under 3 hours long)

Poor radio play
This isn’t a book so much as a radio play, and sadly not a very good one. It is very short to add insult to injury. It also contains a range of racial stereotypes that ate beyond the pale even for this operatic cartoon.

Archangle has it all
Commentary, sound effects, story and characters all combine to make a rollicking adventure come to life. Listening was addictive.
