It started as a simple heist. It went to hell from there. On a space station orbiting a pale blue sun, a package changes hands. Data too sensitive to transmit will be exposed for one brief moment. The client is paying a crazy sum - if the job is clean. That’s not going to happen. Instead, the galaxy’s unluckiest crew of outlaws will have to put all their resources into salvaging what they can from the job. Even if it’s only avoiding blame for the fallout.

Publisher's summary
A thrilling adventure in a world one step away from total subjugation by machines
After long years of war, the United States has sued for peace, yielding to a brutal coalition of nations ruled by fascist machines. One-quarter of the country is under foreign occupation. Manhattan has been annexed by a weird robot monarchy, and in Tennessee a permanent peace is being delicately negotiated between the battered remnants of the US government and an envoy of implacable machines.
Canadian businessman Barry Simcoe arrives in occupied Chicago days before his hotel is attacked by a rogue war machine. In the aftermath, he meets a dedicated Russian medic with the occupying army and 19 Black Winter, a badly damaged robot. Together they stumble on a machine conspiracy to unleash a horrific plague - and learn that the fabled American resistance is not as extinct as everyone believes. Simcoe races against time to prevent the extermination of all life on the continent...and uncover a secret that America's machine conquerors are desperate to keep hidden.

Story
When out-of-shape IT technician Roen wakes up and starts hearing voices in his head, he naturally assumes he’s losing it. He isn’t. As of last night, he has a passenger in his brain - an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Over the millennia his people have trained human heroes to be great leaders, to advance our species at a rate far beyond what it would have achieved on its own. Split into two opposing factions - the peace-loving, but under-represented Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix - the aliens have been in a state of civil war for centuries.

Imperial Intelligence couldn't find them, the Imperial Fleet couldn't catch them, and local defenses couldn't stop them. It seemed the planet-wrecking pirates were invincible. But they made a big mistake when they raided ex-commando leader Alicia DeVries' quiet home/work, tortured and murdered her family, and then left her for dead. Alicia decided to turn "pirate" herself, and stole a cutting-edge AI ship from the empire to start her vendetta. Her fellow veterans think she's gone crazy, the Imperial Fleet has shoot-on-sight orders. And, of course, the pirates want her dead, too.

Very, very good book.
I really enjoyed this book.
Twist and turns within the story allows for many more books to come. My only issue is that they are not available for me to download now!
Kudos to the new writer and choosing a great narrator. Too many time, new books are ruined by poor narration.

A truly unique take on a common theme.
The book was excellent. The author managed to create a truly unique take on the world ruled by machines story. The narrator was good, however regularly quoted characters may have sounded better as different voice actors.

I enjoyed the structure of the story, as if each chapter was a blog, but most I enjoyed looking at the future where humans and robots will co-exist as humans gradually are replaced by ever more competent and powerful robots.

Not Bad, but Definitely Slow.
Not to take anything away from the author's obvious intelligence, but this book read the way that some video games play:
It was obviously working towards something, but it was chock full of "side missions" and "rabbit holes" that weren't bad, but weren't too exciting either. Ultimately, each of them would advance the story in some small way...but it often took a long time to get there.
The premise was cool, the performance was solid, and I finished it...but it was far from a page-turner (can an audio book be a page-turner?)

Couple of Wow's
Wow. I really loved this book. the author is new to the scene so I can't wait for his next book. The Ghosts of Navy Pier. This is worth your audible credit.
The second wow, the narrator. Great job I really loved the characters he helped bring to life. I had never heard of him before, but I am very glad I took a chance on this book.
