Book description
Okay, so let me tell you about this wild audiobook I just finished - Afterparty by Daryl Gregory. This isn't your typical sci-fi story, and honestly, the audio format really brings out all the crazy layers in this one.
The whole thing starts in this near-future Toronto where kids are literally printing their own drugs at home. Yeah, that's right - chemjets and internet recipes for mind-altering substances. Pretty wild setup, right? But then we get this heartbreaking story about a teenage girl who finds religion through this new drug called Numinous, only to end up in juvenile detention when she can't get her fix anymore. It's dark, but Gregory handles it with such care.
Here's where it gets really interesting - Lyda Rose, another girl in the facility, used to be one of the scientists who created this whole mess. She's got this imaginary doctor hanging around (thanks to some serious pharmaceutical baggage), and she's determined to track down the other survivors who helped make Numinous. What unfolds is this insane road trip across Canada and the US that's equal parts chase thriller and philosophical head trip.
The audiobook really shines because of how Gregory weaves together these different voices and perspectives. You've got Lyda's internal conversations with her imaginary doctor, the various characters they meet along the way, and this underlying question about what happens when we start playing god with brain chemistry. It's not just about the action - though there's plenty of that - it's about responsibility, addiction, and whether we can ever really fix the damage we've done.
Gregory's got this amazing track record with awards and all that jazz, but what really comes through in the audio version is his ability to make you care about messed up characters in impossible situations. The narration pulls you right into Lyda's head, and you can't help but root for her even when she's making terrible decisions.
If you're into smart sci-fi that doesn't pull punches, or if you've ever wondered what happens when pharmaceuticals and spirituality collide, this one's definitely worth your time. Just don't expect easy answers - Gregory's too good a writer for that.
