About this listen
Easytown is the city of a thousand stories; tales of betrayed trusts, tarnished virtues, easily obtained vices, and street justice are common.
Treat yourself to a glimpse into the dark future world of New Orleans, where humanity's base desires have overshadowed common decency, and very few are willing to stand in the way. With 10 stories by seven well-known independent authors, High Tech/Low Life is guaranteed to please.
It's a gritty world, full of murky choices where the line between good and evil is smeared with blood. Welcome to Easytown.
With stories by Martin Allen, Chris Philbrook, Valerie Lioudis, Joseph Hansen, C.T. Phipps, J.B. Havens, and Brian Parker.

Narration is divided between two people, Michael Soma, who mostly reads well, with good enunciation and some voice differentiation between characters, and Samantha Vegas, who's awfully accented voice, little girl timbre, unedited line fluffs and, often, very fast paced delivery made her extremely difficult to tolerate, let alone understand. Playback at 0.75 did not help, but simply made her sound more slurred. Fortunately, she reads only four of the ten shorts.
Whilst Brian Parker's Easytown novels are not to be missed, this book sadly adds little to the picture especially given the difficulties with the audio experience. Better to read a print version. My thanks to the rights holder of High Tech, Low Life who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. A pity it was such a disappointment
No one escapes Easytown.
