Tailspin

Pilots of Artem, Part I

De: Dawn Chapman

Narrado por: Neill Thorne, Stephanie Németh-Parker

Cybernetics, mounting debt, and a flight for survival.

In the sprawling city of Artem, Rus dreams of soaring the skies, while Pim, a tiny hybrid of walrus and rat, faces a world of cruelty. Both are thrust into situations they never imagined, their fates bound by the unforgiving tides of destiny.

Rus, a fearless runner by day and racer by night, stands at the brink of eviction, with his family's home hanging in the balance. After a catastrophic accident, he's faced with a life-changing choice: undergo experimental modifications and be forever indebted to the ominous M-Corp or be left to perish. As Rus grapples with his new reality, Pim's journey of hope and despair intertwines with Shay, a ten-year-old scavenger, revealing the harshest aspects of city life.

From the luxurious heights of helo flying to the grimy underbelly of the city transporting mods, their tales are a testament to resilience, the friends they meet along the way, and the relentless pursuit of dreams in the face of insurmountable odds. Dive into a world where technology pushes boundaries, and every decision has repercussions that echo throughout a city on the edge.

Tailspin is a cyberpunk-inspired LitRPG featuring a rich kid, yet still a rags-to-riches adventure!

ok book

okay book. . . good narrator. . . might get the next book in the series. . .

good change of pace

I normally go through more fantasy, so a Sci fi book was definitely different. It was very interesting in my opinion, being easy enough to understand after a bit of time. The character development later in the book went in weird ways that I can't say I liked, but it went back to better development shortly after that. Overall, I really enjoyed the story. It would probably have made more sense if I went through other books in the series, but I don't regret starting here.

so many emotions

I cannot recall the last time a book legitimately brought me to tears...
Dawn has made a true gem with Tailspin, amazing characters interesting plot set in a shared terrific world...
I cannot recommend it enough

You’re gonna ❤ this action-packed book... a book that's also more than it seems.

Despite being a total hard-core action-packed story, with what appeared to be just kids, but kids that were already battle trained and who only want to do what's right for the people that need the protection! This book is also a study in friendship. The study of what friendship means. To explore all the pain and the joys too which are shared between friends. Also of what it's like when you lose a good friend and a part of the team. Dawn Chapman pulls out all the stops in this book, it actually feels like she's bearing her own soul to the reader!
Ohhhh and I definitely need to know more about Shay and Pim too. So yeah I'll hafta read the next book!
You're gonna need this book to find out what happens in this book, but go ahead and get the audio version because Neil Thorne and Stephanie Nemeth-Parker make a great team narrating this tale!

New voice and great story

The audiobook for Dawn Chapman’s Artem series is finally here. The paired narrators are fantastic and handle the main character nuances exceptionally. I particularly enjoyed the vulnerability and intimacy during the characters hospital stay and recovery. Can’t wait for the next volume!!
