THE FUTURE IS YOURS

A stellar cast performs Frey's engrossing sci-fi story featuring Silicon Valley culture and politics. Ben and Adhi are college students who discover a particular type of time travel that allows people to see exactly one year into the future. Rather than seeking larger truths about humanity, the young entrepreneurs take the app to market. But things don't go as planned. The narrative, which is told through emails and congressional testimonies, effectively captures the interplay between the entrepreneurs. Interjections and updates from their employees and family members are also included. Performing as the ambitious college friends, Cary Hite and Vikas Adam sound completely authentic and engaging. They maintain the spell of the audiobook as their invention becomes dangerously unreliable at the same time that the pull of financial success becomes irresistible.
