![]() ![]() ![]() The only thing that got me a teensy bit down is that I called the whole thing from the first or second chapter (I can’t always keep track on audiobooks). A lot of detail is spent explaining how Haden syndrome works as and how threeps work, which is important here because the Hadens (those who are locked in) and how they interact with society (and how society interacts with them) are the crux of the plot. There are androids and virtual reality and self-driving cars but otherwise it doesn’t seem like technology has changed too much. This is a classic procedural thriller with sci-fi elements and Scalzi brings the two together in a fun and exciting way. Lock In is a REALLY COOL IDEA in a REALLY COOL BOOK and you can totally tell Scalzi is setting this up as a series (in fact, if Agent Vann doesn’t get her own spin-off series or a whole book just for her, I may riot). ![]() We were in the third act and I totally though a twist MUST be on the way because 2 hours of audiobook remained.Ĭan we….can we not do that? Just tack on 2 extra hours of… you know what? I’m getting off track. ![]() The audiobook includes a 2 hour novella but it’s tacked on to the end and I either missed that little piece of info in the beginning or it wasn’t announced. Finally, I have gotten around to reading it mostly thanks to Audible credits. Awhile ago, I saw Lock In in my local independent bookstore. ![]()
