Summary
"Barrie Kreinik narrates a complex fantasy about the multifaceted nature of truth...The structure of this story is intricate, despite being short, and Kreinik masterfully weaves a path through its various narratives." -- AudioFile Magazine
Hugo Award finalist Daniel Polansky crafts an innovative, mind-bending fantasy mystery in The Seventh Perfection
When a woman with perfect memory sets out to solve a riddle, the threads she tugs on could bring a whole city crashing down. The God-King who made her is at risk, and his other servants will do anything to stop her.
To become the God-King's Amanuensis, Manet had to master all seven perfections, developing her body and mind to the peak of human performance. She remembers everything that has happened to her, in absolute clarity, a gift that will surely drive her mad. But before she goes, Manet must unravel a secret which threatens not only the carefully prepared myths of the God-King's ascent, but her own identity and the nature of truth itself.

Sadly this narrator was unable to voice a male character, they all sounded like women. And as there a lot of different characters in this short story, it became increasingly confusing to keep characters apart, not something that is normally a problem.
