The Beginning

Just like the first book, Influence, this novella is packed with action.

Humanity's Protectors shows a glimpse of what the world will eventually become in Influence.

Leeyah works mostly in secret for a corporation as their own personal influencer. Her, and people like her, were hired to help the company to gain an upper hand in the corporate world.

The job pays well and, though it's lonely and soul-sucking, Leeyah puts up with it. That is, until the day the company asks her to do something so against her personal morals she refuses.

What follows is probably high up on the "Worst Day Any Teenager Has Ever Experienced" list. Leeyah must flee and fight for her freedom and very life.

Good for people who love stories with a lot of action and adventure and for those who liked Influence and want to know how the world ended up the way it did.

Some insight in how it began

Performance was good, no problems there.

The story was a nice addition but not so much the useful novella that adds a lot of insights. Although it has a few interesting things, yes. This is one I personally felt like it doesn’t add much to the Influence world David has created. Normally I am happier about novella’s in a certain world. But nonetheless it was a nice story. Not exactly depicting the fall itself but a little story about one fairly clueless Influencer, Leah and her experiences about life as an Influencer in the early days.
I think I’m a little bit less excited about the story because throughout the beginning d almost right up till the end, I was expecting rhis to be the story about Kaylin, the main character and Influencer on the run from the series. But who knows, maybe book 2 might reveal a certain tit-bit that places this story in a whole new light. After all, I did enjoy the story, I’m glad I had the chance of getting to know this one!

Great read!

I really enjoyed listening to this prequel to the Influence series. It is an interesting concept and very well written.

I was given a copy of this audiobook in return for my honest review.

I wanted more.

This was a good introduction, but it was too short to be of much use. I wanted more. Lol

Really good

I really liked this novella from the influence series origin books and Rachel is a really good add for a narrator
