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.

So I read the book and listened to the audible version of Cyber Squad. I have to say, the narrator Zach does a fantastic job of building tension and providing voices for the characters.

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

This was my first venture into LitRPG and it wasn’t a disappointment!
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!

Single minded youngster being exploited by a giga corporation. And of course hypnotised by the perfect a$$!

I was given a free copy of this book and I'm leaving an honest and voluntary review.

This is a great take on VR. its great fun with lots of action, humour and much, much more. the characters are great as is the world building. it quickly draws you in and keeps you very entertained.
the narration is spot on for this book, I'm so looking forward to book 2.
A must have.

what a ride.

I'm not usually a fan of LitRPG, but I liked other works by the author, so I gave this a shot.

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

this is a great story I didnt think i would get as into it as I did however it has done the same problem most books do where its stuck a target of the mc's attention in early and keep bringing it up he might aswell live in a different world to this girl they are basicly total strangers and everytime somthing important happens she gets brought up now dont get me wrong I actually like romances when they are well introduced and paced but you could of just as easily had her swoop in and save him like she does at the start him think she's pretty cool and then just not do romance until another book this one is such a great introduction to the world and main character my opinion of him goes down the toilet everytime we get a 5 minute tangent about how he's so into a girl he's spoken to exactly one time. don't let this put you off the book its well worth anyones attention just as someone who has listened to lots of books this is one of those tropes that always feels a bit forced

fantastic book but one glaring issue

I'm not really into LitRPG books, but this one is very light about such things, It's part of the story not the reason for the story.

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

As the first book in a new series, Cyber Squad manages to quickly set the scene and introduce characters that compel you to continue reading (or listening).
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!

The story is well thought out as is the unusual look at the main role of our MCs making this an intriguing listen. Although quite familiar with Mocikats work this is my first chance at the narrator Johnson and I thought he did quite well although it took me a while to get used to a few of the fenale voices as they were different to what I had imagined when reading.
Would pick up the 2nd audio as throughly enjoyed this audio.
I requested this audio and have decided to leave my thoughts for everyone.

Great Cyberpunk

A great start to the series, a unique take into VR and survival. amazing narration.
But the only issue I had was with the MC whenever he saw rouge

Great start
