Single-voiced Cyberpunk Serial Audio Book


Synopsis:

Songbird has lost her parents and her previous life, and needs a place to hide. Fortunately, she has found a position on a team of shadowrunners. Alpha, their genderfluid team leader, has a soft spot for her, as does Shark, their troll street samurai. Jazz, their technomancer, most decidedly does not. What is Songbird running from? What secrets are her teammates hiding? Will her strange connection with spirits of all sorts prove to be a blessing, or a curse?

Chapter 1: The Newbie

Sun, 09 Aug 2020 15:28:38 GMT

Shadowrun is a catch all term for illegal activity. Someone wants some private info off a corp computer? It’s a shadowrun. Need something stolen? Shadowrun. Want an assassination? It’s a shadowrun, though hopefully not one I’ll ever have to do.

A shadowrunner is, by definition, someone who completes shadowruns. That’s me, now. I swallowed. And this was my first shadowrun.
