Next time on The Metamor City Podcast:
The battle is over, the bodies have fallen, and it’s time for the survivors to count the cost. The Sommers cell has defied the norms of its society; Daniel unwittingly aided enemies of the Collective; Abbey is a former fugitive. How will the Hive choose to deal with this band of misfits? And what will Malcolm ard’Valos do, now that his pawn has been taken from him?
Find out in two weeks — until then, keep it on the bright side!





Interesting chapter, really looking forward to the (final?) chapter next time. Since Abbey appeared in your previous short story I wasn’t too surprised by the way she and Malcolm ended up. After all this I am a little surprised how easily members of the collective are able to hide their secrets from each other.
Daniel, a low level telepath is able to conceal some pretty major events during this story. Also, even before Victor received his nanotech upgrade, he’d been able to kill quite a few people without anyone knowing. Makes me wonder how many others like Victor are in the hive; I get the feeling he wasn’t exactly a one time aberration.
Yeah!! Bryan’s a badass!!! Or Brian’s a badass… whatever.
You know, one of these goddamned days I’m going to learn. To learn NOT to listen to Metamor City while I’m at work.
But do I learn? No. I think, “Maybe this one will be not as intense as the last one.”
And what do I get? MORE intensity.
<practicing> No, I’ve just…got something in my eye….No, it’s just something in my eye….Got something in my eye, yeah….</practicing>
Shameless Nemesis Abuse, eh?
Well, I’d comment on it, but it’s still a crapshoot trying to get your episodes downloaded.
I have to pause and restart the download every ten seconds… 7% and counting… sigh.
thanks for the episode. Brutal!
About Abby not having kids anymore… Her womb is damaged, but she still has a stock of eggs, doesn’t she? Or are her ovaries destroyed too? So IVF is possible, no?
just heard the last episode. Question answered.
I’m having the same problem as P.G. Holyfield, the download through itunes runs at a decent speed for a few seconds before it freezes and I have to pause and restart
