It’s not his own genius that Stephen Leeds gets hired for.
Clients want to tap into the imaginary experts that populate his mind—and it’s
getting a bit crowded in there.
Now Stephen and his internal team of “aspects” have been
hired to track down a stolen corpse—but it’s not the corpse that’s important,
it’s what the corpse knows. The biotechnology company he worked for believes he
encoded top-secret information in his DNA before he died, and if it falls into
the wrong hands, that will mean disaster.
Meanwhile, Stephen’s uneasy peace with his own
hallucinations is beginning to fray at the edges, as he strives to understand
how one of them could possibly have used Stephen’s hand to shoot a real gun
during the previous case. And some of those hallucinations think they know
better than Stephen just how many aspects his mind should make room for. How
long will he be able to hold himself together?
When I came across Legion on my Kindle I was intrigued and I
fell in love with the idea and the way the idea was realized in the book. So,
when I got the chance to get the second book for free on audible I snatched it
up. I’m not a huge fan of audiobooks, because I’m not a great listener, I’m too
easily distracted. This was easy to listen to, the narrator was amazing, doing
all the voices of Stephen’s aspects perfectly. I was entertained with the
mystery and the action, and the underlying story of Stephen trying to find his
lost lady friend (whose name escapes me at the moment). The only content
warning I have is for violence and language. It would be akin to watching a
PG-13 movie. Great fun in a novella, and longer than the first book.
It gets a 3.75 out of 5
