À propos de cet audio

Idris Elba and Sabrina Elba present sci-fi mystery thriller Halfway, an Audible Original.

Starring Patricia Allison as Florence, Lenny Henry as Cole, Arinzé Kene as Mark, and George Mackay as Oliver.

Leading the field of artificial intelligence, Halfway, a subsidiary of Soul-Tech, provides customers with the opportunity to digitally upload their minds so that in the eventuality of their death, loved ones will be able to communicate with an AI simulation and gain closure. But at what cost?

A year after her brother Mark’s death, Florence is still consumed by grief. And though her parents encourage her not to dwell on the past, Florence decides to visit Halfway and speak to the simulation of Mark that was created not long before his passing. But instead of putting her mind at ease, speaking with the replica of her brother only unleashes destabilising questions and opens old wounds. Why are Mark’s uploaded memories different from Florence’s? Why are the circumstances surrounding Mark’s death becoming less clear? And what does Halfway have to hide?

Also starring Chizzy Akudolu as Delores, Jeremy Ang Jones as James, Jude Akuwudike as Omar, Sharon D Clarke as Afua, Aurora Dawson-Hunte as Shanice, Kevin N Golding as Jackson, Penny Layden as Anne, Hattie Morahan as Karen, Nneka Okoye as Megan and Grace Saif as Amissha.

Featuring Amelie Abbott, Damola Adelaja, Lizzie Annis, Rachel Atkins, Michelle Asante, Dario Coates, Scarlett Courtney, Faith Edwards, Lucy Havard, Severine Howell-Meri, Asif Khan, Natasha Magigi, Leemore Marrett Jr, George Rextrew, Ash Rizi, Chloe Sommer, Adam Walker-Kavanagh, Sarah Whitehouse, Leah Whittaker and Keith Wickham.

I thought there was a second part...it gets you pulled in with so many plots and then just stops.
WHY?

Where is the rest of it

Black Mirror meets John Marrs. Excellent world-building for a dystopian setting - however the acting can be a little over the top

John Marrs fans should try this one

Well, although it was well acted at first.You have to get past the old timey language, which is not so old timey, but historically very accurate and since we don't tuck like that.It takes a minute to settle into that.But once you are, it's immersive. Great foley sound effects. surroundsoundy even ( depending on your listening apparatus ) solid ambiance and room tone. ( the kind of thing where you hear some in the background, but you don't know you hear it.Because your brain would naturally block it out because it's a normal sound.You'd always hear things like that.

However, saying that I must also point out that the choice of sound effects they used for certain things like footsteps in certain situations sounded terrible, detached, maybe a late sound edit?

Really Enjoyed the acting and the characters but it felt rushed. anything with an origin story of some kind. ie. supernatural Or superhuman abilities almost needs a montage. like a good old-fashioned 1980s, workout and training set before a Rocky title match., kind of montage. And in written format it needs more pages. not less. That way you can really grow with the character. a concoction for a deeper immersion in their experience. Just like in the audiobook, the ' bullet catcher', which, by the way, has the best narrator in the world. So versatile, so immersive, in her characters, whether it be male or female
"Inés del Castillo." i've never met her nor have I seen a picture of her but I am in love with her voice!! . She also narrates " neon ghosts " check those out.

But I digress.

A little like the book 'a brother's price' by Wen Spencer. it gives a beautifully realized and epic alternative reality to the slave trade In the United States. back when that was a hideous reality ( which is still kind of is)
Where The true backbone of american culture. a people who actually built this country for free under the lash. a very nice and overdue vindicated reality, where the oppressors finally get what they deserve. Not a two hundred year later written apology letter and some blood money reparations. yeah! like that's going to ease the generational scars and strange fruit From the bows of trees

but hey! at least the oppressor's conscience is clear as he snores in his master chamber...

Oops.. I digressed again.
sorry that.

Anyway, give it a listen. Pretty good full cast audiobook.

Great foliage... foley-artist..age?
