Summary

Where Man Meets Magic and Machine....

The year is 2050. The power of magic and the creatures it brings have returned to the earth, and many of the ancient races have re-emerged. Elves, Orks, Mages, and lethal Dragons find a home in a world where mana, technology, and human flesh have melded into deadly urban predators. And the multinational mega-corporations that run the world hoard the only thing of real value - information.

For Sam Verner, living in the womb of the Renraku conglomerate was easy, until his sister disappeared and the façade of the corporate reality began to disintegrate. Now he wants out, but to "extract" himself he has to slide like a whisper through the deadly shadows the corporations cast, into a completely different world where his first wrong move may be his last...the world of Shadowrun.

Shadowrun is back!

I revisited this story from a long time ago and it is as good as ever. Brilliant performance although once or twice the volume dropped midsentence to return after a few words to the original level. Apart from that it's superb. I'm waiting for the rest of the trilogy.

The title says it all

Interesting and intricate story and very well read. Reminds me of my 'running' days. Well worth a read whether you have ever played the RPG or not.

As fun as Orc's breath.

Seems to have been written by a GCSE student. Sloppy prose, a protagonist as compelling and consistent as 3 week old stew, uninvolving scenes that seem to take place in a void, a pov that occasionally wanders into omnipresence making me wonder who edited this mess. Even more unforgivably there seem to be no themes to bind the narrative together meaning the book is little more than a series of scenes that quickly become repetitive and interest of even the most ardent shadowrun fan will eventually whither and die. A real shame as the shadowrun world is a compelling one. You will however probably find better entertainment listening to an Actual Play podcast.
