About this listen
Kai thought he had the best job in the world. Playing VR games for a living. Not if the games are trying to kill you. The Net is the last great frontier, a wilderness of data filled with mysteries beyond imagination. Bugs, a harmless annoyance in earlier decades, have become a deadly menace in times when gamers connect their brains directly to VR.
The Cyber Squad has been created to hunt them down. What used to be game QA in earlier times has become an elite, special force of the future, risking their lives to keep users safe. At first, joining the Cyber Squad seems like a dream job to Kai. He is paid well to be part of the coolest troop the gaming world has ever seen. But soon he discovers that the Net is a way scarier place than anyone would have suspected, and bugs are the smallest problem he and his team will have to face.

For the story - this is one for all the gamers out there. If you've ever played VR and wondered where this tech can go - here is a very realistic and terrifying vision of what may happen in the not too distant future.
It's a fun ride with a lot of twists, turns and monsters!
Excellent narration

The story was engaging and the hero was more than relatable as he progressed through it. The narrator did an amazing job, especially with the distorted voices. It really sold the performance. I’ll be back for book 2!
Entertaining as hell!

I'm very, very glad I did!
I liked the LitRPG elements, and the author's flare for action scenes shows through in those parts. However, what really captured my imagination was Mocikat's take on the out-of-game world. I loved their take on a future where technically nobody needs to work, VR is free and UBI exists, and yet lives are reduced to merely existing for a virtual world.
Really interesting take on a not-so-distant future!
Plus, as a software engineer, I could appreciate the plausibility of the VR world. Particularly the day-0 glitches.
A more thought-out take on Ready Player One

Enjoyed the book and it was an easy to follow read.
The narrator was clear and great with the voices and the recording was clear with no sound issues.
Fantastic new world and I'm really looking forward to the next in the series. (part 2 is out now so you'd never guess what I'm listening to next!)
Fantastic start to a new series

Being my first LitRPG book, I was unsure what to expect, but A.K. Mocikat manages to weave these elements into the story in such a way that newcomers to the genre will easily understand them, while those more experienced in the genre will enjoy.
As a story, Kai and his journey into the world of Cyber Squad brought to mind the world of Ready Player One, but seem from the inside rather than just a player of the game, which added an interesting perspective to the tale with its own unique ideas and story-telling.
The narrator, Zachary Johnson, was perfect for this story, with a range of distinct voices and tones that made the book both entertaining and easy to follow while listening, with a handful of special effects that heighten the experience.
Cyber Squad is a fast-paced and exciting book with several questions and themes that ensure you keep going and eagerly await the next installment, which I will be getting to as soon as possible.
A well-written intro to an exciting new series!
