C791

Cyborgs: More than Machines, Volume 1

De: Eve Langlais

Narrado por: Benjamin Claude, Morais Almeida

Machines aren't supposed to feel, but this cyborg can't help falling in love.

Assigned as a specimen collector for a captured cyborg, Chloe is intrigued by the machine disguised as a man. Kidnapped during his daring escape, he shows her that despite the chip in his brain, his humanity is not completely lost.

Formerly known as unit X109GI, Joe is on a quest to discover his origin. While he doesn't find the answers he's looking for, he does discover that affection and lust aren't just for humans. But when it comes to a battle between logic and love, which side will the cybernetic organism - once a man - choose?

Evaluating his feelings will have to wait though, because the military isn't done with Joe. But their threats against him pale in comparison before the shocking discovery of project C791, the revelation of which stuns the rebel cyborgs - and ignites a fury for vengeance.

Unexpected

An army of cyborgs were set to be destroyed when two who had become sentient turned things around. I really enjoyed Joe as he further developed, especially when a young nurse was sent to take samples of him when he was caged by the military.

Loved the story

This was a really great story. I was excited about there being both a man and a woman reading, but the man was terrible. Often times, he didn’t pause at the end of sentences. Kind of annoying. However, still loved the content and will listen to the next.

Wow

Completely different from the books I’ve read of Eve Langlais. This was very good and I am excited to go onto the next one. I did miss the humor that is usually in E.L. books but I will admit this was a great book.

Yay!!!

I love this series and am excited that it is on audible. I listened nonstop. My only issue was the flip flopping of the narrators. I like when there is a male and female narrator but not switching chapters. Other than that the pace was steady and exciting. I felt so sorry for Close and Joe. The chemistry between the 2 was great.

Love Machines

I love this story. it has love, intrigues, and cyborgs. the story was too short and I want more. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the books in this series.

Cyborgs are hot

This is book one of the cyborg series it is a standalone book with an awesome HEA. I recommend this book and series to all paranormal lovers. Joe is one of the first cyborgs to become self-aware and the first to find love. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Happy listening.

Cyborg Love

Overall pretty good. Not much of a storyline but this series could definitely have potential. I like the premise and the cyborg characters learning to become more "human" through "love" is interesting. Lots of steamy erotic scenes. I might try one more to see if maybe they get a bit more interesting.

Narration however, is quite terrible and I'm hoping other books in this series change narrators. The female voice is worse than the male but not by much.

1st in Cyborg series...... Loved it!

Great storyline, which I had read in book format, that was very well narrated. Both POV's were given their own narrator which doesn't always work, but both were at the same pace, similar accents, with good emotional usage. No overdone, blown out of proportion hysterics. Would definitely recommend, however do remember Eve writes HOT books, so be careful who can hear!!

Computerized Love

Chloe is tasked with gathering specimens from the captured cyborg. The cyborg, Joe, is there to gather information on cyborg creation. Having a general hatred for humans, his heart starts as soon as Chloe enters his sights.
Grabbing her when he is rescued, he wants to find out. Running from the human military, they discover some unexpected information. And who is this C791?
Great first book. Loved it.

So Cool Cyborgs!

The Hero: Joe - Leader of the Cyborg rebel force. He came back to search for the origin of their species and more information about their creation. He purposely got captured in order to get the information he needed. He knew they were created by the human scientists, that the scientists got them from the military and ‘upgraded’ them to cyborgs against their wills and removed their human memories and their humanity with them. Though he and many of his brethren had recovered some of their memories. They still didn’t know where the nano’s in their blood originally came from.

The heroine: Chloe - She was alone and poor, the military and scientist offered a lot of credits for her new job, which was a lab technician. She was required to gather samples from the cyborg prisoner who was chained up and surrounded by an electric field.

The Story: As Chloe gathered blood and saliva samples from Joe, she found out that the military had lied to the public about the reasons for the revolution. She thought the cyborgs were created and born in the military labs and became violent and rebelled. She didn’t know they had been men, soldiers that were changed against their will and treated as slaves until they were determined to be too dangerous and were slated to be killed.

When it comes time for Joe to escape, he plans to escape with the cute little nurse who has been taking his blood. When the man guarding his cage physically assaults Chloe, his mind is made up and he escapes with her, killing the man on his way out.

This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration. The narration was done by Benjamin Claude and Morais Almeida. I liked Morais, she had a youngish sounding voice which matched Chloe well. I wasn’t too fond of Benjamin Claude, though he does have a deep and manly voice, he had a touch of either an accent or maybe just an elite sounding voice like that of the upper class, I am not sure, there was just something that I personally didn’t relate to.

Though the story was great. I had read this one before, I liked it just as much as I did the first time. Here was my original review: This is my first Cyborg book and I really liked it. I didn’t think I would but it turns out Cyborgs are pretty hot. The story was good though a bit unoriginal. The military has a Cyborg program used for super soldiers in space and after a few EMP pulses something happens to the neural implants and the Cyborgs become sentient. So the military decides to decommission them but the Cyborgs revolt under the leadership of self-named Cyborg, Joe.

Years after the revolt, Joe returns to Earth and purposely gets caught by the military in order to steal secrets about the origins of the Cyborgs. While in custody he meets Chloe, a lab technician who is sent to get blood and tissue samples from the captive Cyborg. He escapes and takes her captive and runs from the military. The romance blooms from there.
