About this listen
If they upload again, what will they find?
Audible’s blockbuster original series returns with the much-anticipated sequel.
It’s 2555 and the remaining members of the Phoenix colony, both convicts and astronauts, have fully integrated since they were originally downloaded from cryogenic suspension.
Now, as the countdown to Earth's final day approaches, two groups of colonists prepare to leave on separate missions.
One group, led by Captain Letitia Garvey, will re-upload to the quantum system as they head to Zeta Tucanae to complete the original astronaut mission, while the other, led by Mayor Roscoe Koudoulian, will begin a new colony on Mars, safely away from the asteroid about to hit Earth. But tragedy strikes on the day Roscoe is set to leave, forcing him to upload his consciousness as well. Back inside their virtual silos, the astronauts and convicts alike encounter mysterious digital duplicates that could destroy their stored consciousnesses forever. In a race against time, they are forced to make impossible choices in order to exist in a world where the line between human and digital reality has blurred.
From Canada's most decorated sci-fi author Robert J. Sawyer and featuring Brendan Fraser (Academy Award winner) and Vanessa Sears (Dora Award winner), The Downloaded 2: Ghosts in the Machine is a thought-provoking sci-fi thriller that takes you on a mind-bending journey where identity, memory, and morality collide in a collapsing digital future.

im glad it had a happy ending, storybwas a little heavy on the woke side, but it didn't detract from the story.
Absolutely loved Brenden Fraiser in this. He should definitely read more books for Audible x

Loved the performance.

I personally love that the author embraced their trans character.
My only critic is that I feel it kinda retconned some of Latisha’s ending journal notes I think?
But still a good listen
As good as the first one
