About This Audiobook

Brainwyrms is a visceral, unapologetic plunge into the dark heart of transphobia and its consequences. Alison Rumfitt's prose is as brutal as it is beautiful, painting a world where violence and pleasure intertwine in a dance as mesmerizing as it is disturbing. Nicky Endres' narration brings this grimy, neon-lit world to life, her voice shifting seamlessly between characters, from Frankie's raw, visceral pain to the cold, calculating malice of the novel's antagonist. This isn't just an audiobook; it's an experience.

Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Brainwyrms is a punch in the gut, a wake-up call, and a love letter to the LGBTQ+ community all rolled into one. Endres' narration is nothing short of exceptional, capturing the raw, visceral pain of transphobia and the sweet, brutal revenge that follows. The pacing is relentless, like a train barreling down a track, and the production is minimalist, allowing Rumfitt's prose to take center stage. However, the novel's unflinching exploration of violence may be too much for some listeners. But for those who can stomach it, Brainwyrms is a must-listen. It's not just a story; it's a statement.
