Book description
Hey, so I just finished the audiobook version of Company Town by Madeline Ashby and I have to tell you-I'm still buzzing. The story starts with Hwa, the last totally organic person on a massive offshore rig. The whole crew's been upgraded with bio-engineered tech, so Hwa's the oddball who chose to stay natural. She's a badass self-defence pro, and the Family-some kind of elite group on the rig-has handed her the job of training the youngest member. And get this: that kid's getting death threats that look like they're coming from another timeline. Like, seriously, what does that even mean?
Right off the bat, Ashby throws you into this tangled web of timelines, security protocols, and a city that's on the brink of chaos. The way she builds that tension is brilliant-she layers mystery and world-building so that you're never sure if it's a serial killer or something far stranger. I love how the audiobook narrator really captures the urgency of those threats, making each chapter feel like a ticking clock.
What makes this audiobook extra special is how Ashby balances action with the more human moments. Hwa's training sessions aren't just flashy fight scenes; they reveal her deeper worries about being the last organic person and the weight of protecting someone who might not survive the rig's dangerous politics. The narration gives that nuance a real feel-you can almost hear the grit in Hwa's voice.
And the setting-this rig turned mini-city-feels claustrophobic yet vast. The rig's own bio-engineered systems, the Family's secret agenda, and the looming murders all create a sense that every corner could hide a new twist. Ashby's world-building is spot-on; she doesn't just describe tech, she lets it influence the plot in ways that feel organic.
I think the audiobook really shines because of how the narrator pulls every character's personality. The Family's youngest, the killer's ominous tone, even the silent, cold rig-each is distinct. The pacing keeps you turning pages (or, in this case, ears) without a moment to relax. I found myself hanging on every line, like a kid listening to a story around the campfire.
If you're into a mix of hard-boiled detective vibes, speculative tech, and a protagonist who's literally the last of her kind, Company Town is a must-listen. Ashby delivers a clever, suspense-filled story that feels fresh and totally worth the time you'll spend listening. Trust me, you'll want to play it on repeat, just to soak in that world.
