Game Ship: A free A. I. narrated audio book

What if immersive gaming holds the key to interstellar travel?

Earth is preparing to launch its first interstellar colony ship, but volunteers for a ten year one-way trip in isolation, most of it to be spent in virtual reality pods, are few and far between. For most the choice is to remain in a dystopian society where the work is done by robots and the thinking by computers.

Game Ship is a mashup of hard SciFi, gamelit, and a dystopian future. Although the idea was inspired by LitRPG, it does not include a character progression of leveling up in a fantasy world, and most of the story takes place outside of the immersive gaming pods. This free audiobook is narrated by an A. I. generated voice.
