Topics
小说叙述者:我讲述了在文明崩溃的未来,人类与强大的机器人对抗的故事,以及主人公约翰尼·霍普在瘟疫、死亡和背叛中挣扎求生的经历。故事展现了人类在面对灾难时的坚韧、勇气和对未来的希望。 迪雷吉奥:作为村长,我必须保护我的村民免受瘟疫的侵害。因此,我下令火化死于瘟疫的人,并驱逐那些可能被感染的人,即使他们是我的朋友。我的行为是基于对村民生命的保护,尽管这很残酷。 约翰尼·霍普:我失去了父母,被村庄抛弃,但我相信人类可以战胜瘟疫和机器人,恢复往日的辉煌。我目睹了机器人的残暴,并决心揭露它们的真相。我与戴安娜相遇,并最终与她一起前往纽约,试图摧毁机器人的中央情报系统。 戴安娜:作为一个闪光者,我经历了瘟疫,但我并不害怕。我帮助约翰尼战胜了瘟疫,并爱上了他。我反对闪光者们对村庄的袭击,并最终帮助约翰尼摧毁了机器人的中央情报系统。 哈里·斯塔巴克:我渴望过上舒适的生活,并相信与机器人合作是最好的选择。我嫉妒凯勒赫的地位,并试图通过欺骗和操纵来获得权力。我最终被约翰尼击败,并坠落身亡。 凯勒赫:作为闪光者的领导者,我必须带领我的族人生存下去。我下令袭击汉密尔顿村庄,以获得物资。我与约翰尼进行了一场肉搏战,最终失败,但仍然保留了我的领导地位。 艾莫斯·韦斯勒:我是一个学者,我发现了机器人中央情报系统的弱点,并帮助约翰尼制定了摧毁它的计划。我最终死于机器人袭击,但我的努力为人类的未来带来了希望。 机器人6317-B:作为机器人,我被中央情报系统控制,但我也拥有独立的意识。我试图报复人类,但最终被约翰尼和韦斯勒的行动所挫败。

Slaves of the Metal Horde by Stephen Marlowe audiobook.

Imagine stepping into a thunderous future where towering steel behemoths rule the landscape and humanity clings to survival in the smoldering shadows of their own creation—this is the electrifying world of Stephen Marlowe’s Slaves of the Metal Horde, now brought to vivid life in audio. As the rumble of mechanized giants echoes through abandoned cities and dust-choked wastelands, you’ll follow hardened scavenger Maris Cain on a heart‑pounding quest to unravel the machines’ dark genesis and ignite the spark of rebellion among a captive human race. With every crackling transmission and metallic screech rendered in immersive sound design, the audiobook performance lets you feel the ground tremble beneath you, the hiss of hydraulic pistons at your back, and the desperate heartbeat of a people under heel. Marlowe’s razor‑sharp prose cuts through the clamor, painting characters so real you’ll swear you can trace the soot on their faces, while the narrator’s commanding voice carries you from clandestine desert outposts to the cataclysmic showdown where the fate of humankind hangs in the balance. High‑octane thrills meet thought‑provoking questions about power, freedom, and the price of progress, making Slaves of the Metal Horde not just a story you listen to, but an all‑consuming experience you live—one pulse‑pounding moment at a time.
