Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As an editor, I was impressed by the way The Ruby Code gripped me from the opening scene. Russell and Meskimen's narration was masterful, with each voice adding depth and emotion to the story. I particularly loved how they captured the sense of immersion and escapism that virtual reality gaming offers, making it easy to get lost in the world of The Glass Realm. That being said, there were a few moments where the pacing felt a tad uneven. Khoury's writing is often dense and packed with detail, which can make it challenging to keep up at times. However, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise engaging and suspenseful listen. Overall, I would highly recommend The Ruby Code to fans of thriller and mystery audiobooks, especially those who enjoy complex characters and thought-provoking themes.
