About this listen
''It's clear you're in the hands of a master storyteller' - Alex Michaelides
Upgrade is the mind-bending thriller from Blake Crouch, author of the bestselling Dark Matter and Recursion.. . .
‘You are the next step in human evolution . . .’
What if you were capable of more?
Your concentration was better, you could multitask quicker, read faster, memorize more, sleep deeper.
For Logan Ramsay, it’s happening. He’s beginning to see the world around him, even those he loves the most, in whole new ways.
He knows that it’s not natural, that his genes have been hacked. He has been targeted for an upgrade.
Logan’s family legacy is one he has been trying to escape for decades and it has left him vulnerable to attack. But with a terrifying plan in place to replicate his upgrade throughout the world’s population, he may be the only person capable of stopping what has already been set in motion.
To win this war against humanity Logan will now have to become something other than himself . . .
Intricately plotted and epic in scope, Upgrade asks us to ponder the limits of our humanity – and our boundless potential. Are you ready for the impossible?

Ok but ‘by the numbers’
I finished this, and enjoyed it in parts, but sadly found it difficult to really engage with the story or characters.

Blooming brilliant
Looking forward to see what Amblin do with this for sure. I am a recent discoverer of Mr Crouch and I can’t get enough, I love his mind. A great ride of a book that got me thinking.

For all the potential it doesn’t go anywhere special
It’s an action book with all the action dumped in the second part leaving us with these bland characters you’re meant to engage with. Dialog is not crouches strong suite it seem. The theme of genetic mutation and updates is a very good one but it goes down the path of something unexciting. It includes many hard science info dumps which adds not one thing but to stall.
It’s fast paced and interesting enough for you to blast through it with a couple thought provoking questions. I’ll give it that.

Blake Crouch does it again
Awesome and intriguing premise, with cool science and an over-arching moral dilemma. Excellent work.

It was ok. Just ok. Interesting concept.
For some reason, it just didnt grab me like some of his other works. Loved Run and Wayward Pines. This started off well and had some very interesting concepts, but ended up a litlle dull. Not bad. Just not quite up to his normal standard. Still worth a listen and very well narrated.

Yet another amazing story from Blake Crouch
Between Dark Matter, Recursion and now this, Crouch is cementing himself as the king of Hard-Fi. Immensely well researched and not dumbed down stories that are enticing and moreish. Excellently narrated by Henry Levya. the only frustration is waiting for the next book!
