About this listen

Best-selling British master of science fiction Adrian Tchaikovsky brings listeners a new, mind-expanding science fantasia in The Expert System's Brother.

After an unfortunate accident, Handry is forced to wander a world he doesn't understand, searching for meaning. He soon discovers that the life he thought he knew is far stranger than he could even possibly imagine.

Can an unlikely savior provide the answers to the questions he barely comprehends?

fun little story! really loved the resolution!

I found it confusing at the beginning, but I think it's supposed to feel alien and foreign. occasionally the characters seemed unrealistic in reaction an such... but again, on later inspection their actions fit the molds.

AI - so topical

I agree, the narrator doesn't do the story justice, bit still listenable and a great story

Decent sci-fi, odd performance

The narrator sounds like William Shatner reciting beat poetry. It can be distracting, but it’s still entirely possible to enjoy the story.

Fantastic

This was my first story read by Adrian Tchaikovsky, and I adored it! This short story still packed the punch I expected, it is very thought provoking.

The narrator almost completely ruined the story

The amazing story was almost completely ruined by the very strange rhythm and intonations.
I stuck with the story but honestly had a hard time to even understand some words due to the narrators way.

I’m sure the story is Great!

But, I couldn’t listen past the 11 minute mark. Not every sentence needs to end with an exclamation.
