About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Late 21st century and Earth has been reduced to an uninhabited wasteland. What was left of humanity was evacuated into overpopulated space stations, or 'Habitats'. A hotbed for crime and strange new religious sects, the Habitat Security Division has no shortage of work.
No-nonsense Investigator Bridget Kurtis soon finds herself embroiled in a life or death struggle with a sinister cult, and what she uncovers has disturbing implications for the future of the human race...
Featuring Nina Sosanya, Richard Armitage, David Warner, Indira Varma, Pippa Bennett-Warner alongside a full cast, fans and newcomers alike will be transported to the gritty audio world of 'Bridge' and her colleagues for an immersive listening experience like no other.
"Nina Sosanya's Bridget Kurtis is the unquestioned standout. Her no-nonsense, dryly comic delivery really helps to bring Dan Abnett's script to the audiobook format." - Big Comic Page

There is no scene setting which I think would lose most people if they are not familiar with the comic.
There is just no atmosphere, it feels like the actors are generally reading their lines seperatly in an empty room.
Direction is poor and there's some very hammy acting.
While the adaption has taken the dialogue fairly faithfully there has been no attempt to fill in for the visuals either with additional dialogue or sound affects. For example ther is a scene early on where a major character is killed. If I had not read the book I could not have worked out what had happened.
The incidental music is awful. Was hoping for something Baled Runner-esq but its more 80's synth pop.
I was eagerly awaiting this as the book has such depth and is so engrossing.
But this has just made me sad. It does not do justice to the incredible work of Dan Abnett or Inj Culbard.
