John Scalzi returns with Head On, the standalone follow-up to the New York Times bestselling and critically acclaimed Lock In. Chilling near-future SF with the thrills of a gritty cop procedural, Head On brings Scalzi’s trademark snappy dialogue and technological speculation to the future world of sports.
Hilketa is a frenetic and violent pastime where players attack each other with swords and hammers. The main goal of the game: obtain your opponent’s head and carry it through the goalposts. With flesh and bone bodies, a sport like this would be impossible. But all the players are “threeps,” robot-like bodies controlled by people with Haden’s Syndrome, so anything goes. No one gets hurt, but the brutality is real and the crowds love it.
Until a star athlete drops dead on the playing field.
Is it an accident or murder? FBI Agents and Haden-related crime investigators, Chris Shane and Leslie Vann, are called in to uncover the truth―and in doing so travel to the darker side of the fast-growing sport of Hilketa, where fortunes are made or lost, and where players and owners do whatever it takes to win, on and off the field.

@Tarrow, audio works just fine. You either didn’t download the whole file, or spreading bs

I had no idea this version existed. The Audible version is Will Wheaton. No diss to Will but Lock In, the first book is narrated by Amber Benson and she’s great.
Thank you!

Does anyone have a copy of the first book in the series, “Lock In” narrated by Amber Benson?
I heard both Amber’s and Will’s versions, and much preferred Amber (I still like Will). Now I seem to have lost the Amber version.

Just to give context to what daddyquatro said: the whole gimmick when Lock In first came out was Scalzi wrote the protagonist to be nonbinary to the point the only gender inflection would be who read the audiobook, so they simultaneously released versions with Wheaton and Benson as a ‘choose your own adventure’ kind of situation.
Now, many years later as Wheaton’s nerd-stardom has faded a little, Benson’s is likely going to be the preferred version going forward.
