Summary
The Peripheral by William Gibson is a thrilling audiobook about two intertwined futures, from the bestselling author of Neuromancer
In the near future in a broken down rural America, Flynne Fisher scrapes a living as a gamer for rich players. One night, working a game set in a futuristic but puzzlingly empty London, she sees a death that's unnervingly vivid. Soon after she gets word that it isn't a game after all—the future she saw is all too real, she's the only witness to a murder and someone from that unreal tomorrow now wants her dead. The story of a young woman caught between two worlds, The Peripheral interweaves two futures—pre-apocalypse USA and post-apocalypse London—to tell a story which gets right to heart of the way we live now.
“Wild, richly satisfying . . . big-screen, popcorn-chewing thrills. What a glorious ride” - Guardian

Brilliant narration - incredible accents bravo
As prescient as Neuromancer was in the 80s - love the Amazon series - a crime it was cancelled. Gibsons prose is poetry

Enjoyable, informative and entertaining.
A fantastic story that the TV series very loosely follows. Great voice actor to boot who helped to bring the audible narration to life.

good reviews but not to my liking
Story does not make sense, the way it was written (all over the place, in my opinion)
