About this listen
Zeke built his reputation as a dependable smuggler one sleepless night at a time. When he finally got a chance at the big leagues, he leaped at the opportunity. He didn't expect it to turn south so quickly, but in the city of Luckhaven, life can change in the blink of an eye—or the pull of a trigger.
Armed with his prized pistol and indomitable willpower, Zeke wades through an ocean of deceit in his quest for the truth. When he meets Delila, a beautiful woman hiding valuable information, they piece together a massive conspiracy that could shake the very foundations of the world.
Like Shadows in the Night is book 1 of the Aurora Chronicles, a gritty cyberpunk series that will keep you glued. It contains graphic depictions of violence and intimate situations as well as unconventional relationships.

Story
I used to think my life would be common, boring even. My online guildies and my friends sure thought so. Yet everything I knew to be true in this world all changed drastically one fateful night... or should I say, it shifted. As it turns out, my father passed on more than his name to me. Something feral and mighty awoke within me, and I knew at once, I would never be the same again. Shortly after, I received an invitation that I didn't expect, a call to attend the mysterious Apex Academy.

Story
I was just a normal guy making his way in the big city—until I found myself transported to another world to train at the Alpha Warlock Academy. Not only do they want me among their ranks, but they want me to train among the most powerful of warlocks at the Academy. I've got a lot on my plate: cramming spells, training for combat, and trying not to get myself killed during my initial challenges. Fortunately, I've also got plenty of friends to help me out, including my hobgoblin neighbor and the smooth-talking genie across the hall.

Story
An experimental ASI with a terminal case of curiosity reached out and tampered with the universe in a way that it should not have, and unleashed a torrent of energy we would call magic into our galaxy. Humans, and every other intelligent lifeform for that matter, were ill-prepared, physically and mentally, for such an eventuality. In an effort to save itself, the ASI hastily created something it called the Framework to shape and codify this magical energy, and usher in a new world. A world of classes, levels, and extraordinary power. But also a world of monsters.

Story
Growing up, she was the girl down the street. Even then, I knew she was different. She was tough, rough, and had the strength to stop a speeding car with her bare hands. We were as thick as thieves, sharing every adventure. Then one day she revealed a secret. She wasn't from Earth. She was from a distant place called the Arcadia Multiverse. Her people lived under the rule of a god-like entity known as the System. That System had its gaze fixed on Earth. And it was only a matter of time before it came for us.

Story
Randold, better known as Rand, was no ordinary individual. Despite his best efforts, he possessed an extraordinary secret—he was a Super. Well, technically speaking, he belonged to that exceptional group, but he concealed his true nature from the world. For Rand possessed a remarkable ability to manipulate all forms of energy, even the Superpowers of others, a power that, if discovered, would undoubtedly land him in dire trouble with the government. The consequences ranged from imprisonment to something far worse.

Nobody ever said the Path of Progression was easy, but my burning desire to dive can’t be quenched. I just never thought I’d be prohibited from getting a diving license just because I tried to help a bratty blonde girl get hers. Soon, we’re joined by a lovely brunette bookworm, and we start diving the dungeon on our own terms.

When I inherited my grandfather's magic shop, I wasn't exactly thrilled. I have plans, and inheriting a magic shop in a sleepy, mysterious little town isn't one of them. But when I discover a stunning girl named Elodie, with cat ears atop her head, working at the shop, I can't help but be intrigued. At first glance, I assume Elodie is just another pretty face working at my grandfather's magic shop. With her sleek hair, mesmerizing green eyes, and curves in all the right places, it's hard not to be distracted by her stunning appearance. But as I soon discover, there's much more to Elodie.

Gritty criminal-is-a-good-guy story.
This is kind of like an updated 80s smuggler with a big heart epic tale.
Little guys against a megacorp run by a megalomaniac with a god complex.
It's gritty and spicy and intense.
If you like intense LitRPG with a HaremLit taste, you are going to want to get this book.
I give this book 7 out of 5 stars.

These are the gritty grimy streets!
I'm a big fan of the gritty grimy streets. Whether it's urban fantasy, cyberpunk, steampunk, or any other genre. This fit the bill. Very well written. The plotline and progression have a nice pace, not too fast so that the mc should always seem like their out of breath but fast enough to keep your interest high. This is a good pick for several hours of street entertainment.

Check This One Out
Right up front before you read any further just know that I recommend this book to anybody thinking about giving it a shot. A little context for my review. I tend to take it easy on the first and last book of any series as not every series makes it to “The End” and the first of anything can be a shaky endeavor. This is a solo narration by the amazingly talented Erin Bateman who I've been a fan of since “Survival of the Fittest.” The author is still relatively new to me, but I think they've been doing a pretty good job. For the first book the primary question is whether or not I was entertained, and the answer was yes. The story starts out with a male lead receiving two gunshots to the gut. He's a delivery boy but the reputation he's got is more of that movie called The Transporter. He manages to retrieve the package taken off of him and get medical help. Some sort of special doctor on retainer to patch him up. The person the package is meant for gives them some sort of high-powered pistol and we also get to see a glimpse of his boss AKA a fixer who appears to have some sort of hopeful romantic connection coming from both parties. From there we get introduced to the next important character which is a 20-year-old woman in some sort of prison like college. It's an orphanage for which she got special dispensation for the new college program. The scene is kind of unfolding with children being taken away to a quote better life. The suspicion is thick, and the lady character’s curiosity is dangerous. The whole opening chapters paint this picture of a futuristic dystopian city complete with sky ships, poverty, and a lack of emergency response services. I definitely don't want to go beyond that because it really is a good book in my opinion. If you do get to the ending of this one and are looking for more than the good news is that book two is already out in eBook format. If you get to the end of book two and are looking for more from this author or eBooks just aren't your jam, then I would recommend you check out his "New Kingdom" trilogy which has the first two books available in audio and then the third book is out in e-book format. Lastly, I'll just say well done to everybody who had a hand in bringing this story to us, the Audible listeners.

Probably the worst book I've read.
I told myself to give it a chance. I've been waiting for the story to "begin" or hook me, but there's 1½ hours left and I have no idea what's going on. It all seems random, messy and pointless.
