AI Enhanced Humans
Review of the Audible Originals audiobook (June 2019)

Maybe it was the robotic delivery of much of the text here, which admittedly was in keeping with the theme of humans gradually converted and enhanced into immortal beings, but I just could not get engaged with this 90 minute Audible Theatre audiobook. A couple meets while undergoing enhancement procedures at various stages in their lives and debates about it. There just didn't seem to be much drama or suspense.

Life Ever After is one of the 2018 Audible Emerging Playwrights commissions. As with the other commissions released to date, it is a studio recording rather than a live theatre performance.

Life Ever After was originally released in June 2019 and was also one of ten Audible Originals available free for members for the month of July 2020. It is available to everyone for a standard price. ( )

Really neat short audiobook about a future where humans can replace failing body parts with mechanical ones to become cyborgs... but then have to decide how far they want to go. I really liked the way this one was produced. Narration was split between the two main characters, with a separate narrator for each. Everything is done as if it was either dialogue or an internal monolog, and for this story it really worked. ( )
