Audible narration by Janina Gavankar (True Blood)
In the near future, if Vegas games are ingeniously scam-proof, then the heists have to be too, in this imaginative and whip-smart story by the New York Times bestselling author of The Martian.

An IT whiz at the Babylon Casino is enlisted to upgrade security for the game of keno and its random-number generator. The new quantum computer system is foolproof. But someone on the inside is no fool. For once the odds may not favor the house—unless human ingenuity isn’t entirely a thing of the past.

Andy Weir’s Randomize is part of Forward, a collection of six stories of the near and far future from out-of-this-world authors. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single thought-provoking sitting.

Quick Entertainment Not going to be the best of the series, but an enjoyable romp from one of the best in the science fiction biz. Loved the narrator.Quantum computers and gambling in the future! This is a clever and believable story about how quantum computers will affect the gambling industry in the not-to-distant future. I enjoyed the characters, and the author managed to tell a cohesive and smart story in a very short number of pages. This was one of the shorter ones in this Forward series, but I still really enjoyed the ending. The author was able to wrap up the narrative so that it didn't seem unfinished despite its length.I appreciate when an author really does his research; so that the descriptions of the highly complex subject matter are accurate and the plot seems plausible. This was a great example of the author demonstrating his understanding of quantum computing, and telling a great story involving extremely clever characters.I have to recommend this one! It is very short, but comes to a satisfying and smart conclusion.* (If you found this review to be informative and/or helpful, please click "Helpful" to let me know. Thanks! ) *
