Metal From Heaven by August Clarke
3.5
gonna be honest, i genuinely have almost no clue what happened in this story. despite that being almost never my vibe, i already want to reread this but physically?? so honestly my rating of this might rise in the future.
interesting to have read this book about murdering a ceo at a time when there was Much Discussion about,,, yknow,,, a man who did That who shares a name with a very popular nintendo character. if you know what i mean
this book was very much a fever dream and again i still barely know what to make of it. also vico ortiz’s narration is overall fine, but i might just have to avoid books narrated by them because of how often they mispronounce words (mispronunciations take me out of the story so badly). this has been consistent in both audiobooks ive listened to narrated by them :/
anyway, overall liked this but it was hard to get back into every time i started listening again and the writing is very blurry, if that makes sense. but as someone who has recently begun watching Arcane i really really can see the comparisons of Metal From Heaven to Arcane
