Acerca de esta escucha
An AI, an investigator, and a geneticist walk into a library...
It’s the year 2101, and half of England is underwater, but the horrors of the Melt are becoming a distant memory thanks to ArkTech, the company that saved the world.
The ArkTech Territory is the only home Charlotte Vance has ever known, so when Ben, the company’s curious AI, starts asking awkward questions about human behaviour, she's only too happy to help.
But as she investigates the mystery of why a geneticist is stealing pages from library books, Charlotte is forced to confront unsettling truths about her past, and about the company she’s always trusted.
The deeper she digs, the more she realises her discoveries could threaten everything she holds dear. Charlotte must make a choice – and the wrong decision could cost her everything.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 23
Rapid colonization of the moon is pushing both national space agencies and powerful corporations to negotiate a New Lunar Accord in an effort to prevent escalating conflicts over valuable resources and territory. But hope that this treaty will bring stability to the nascent lunar civilization is suddenly dashed when a high-energy solar storm causes a cascade of destruction to the vast satellite constellations that orbit Earth. Now it’s only a matter of weeks before the ever-increasing debris cloud makes travel back to the home planet impossible.

What would you do if you were part of the last of humanity, stranded on the moon? That's the fate of Moon Base Armstrong after an unexpected event strands 137 people. They all volunteered to set up the base, not be humanity's last stand. The urgent, day-to-day life and death struggle to make the moon base self-sustaining gives way to despair, fear, and hope.

good dystopian AI-themed story
Enjoyable story. Loved The Melt name! I think I wouldn't feel as close to the AI as the main character did! Glad to have some closure and positive vibes at the end. The end read like a Book #1 of a series?

Interesting Concept
In the near future (post climate disaster), Ben, an AI that tells dad jokes, and his partner Charlotte, the head of Awkward Questions, are investigating why pages from library books are being stolen. Although often amusing and full of heart (I love a good misfit story), leaves one to ponder lots of big topics: climate change, social responsibility, morality, conformity vs breaking the rules for the benefit of society, etc. Excellent (as always) performance by Kristin Atherton. The final chapter also drives you to a free short audio prequel download from the author's website. Also enjoyable! Looking forward to the next in series.
