Fierce. Audacious. Independent. Curtis Ash can’t be bothered to settle down. He’s too busy enjoying his cushy job as a high-paid stylist, caught in a whirlwind of hookups, parties, and obscenely priced cocktails.

The only snarl in an otherwise charmed life is the salon’s hotshot colorist, Red Turner.  Not only does Red put the whammy on customers and rake in all the big tips, he’s oblivious to Crash’s flirtation. But there will be plenty of time to win him over…so Crash thinks.

Thanks to his refusal to trust his gut, Crash not only tanks his career—he allows the one man who truly holds his interest to slip away. While he insists he doesn’t need a relationship to complete him, would sharing his life with someone really be so bad?

Skin After Skin is a sweeping saga that begins two years before Among the Living and ends just after Spook Squad. Experience PsyCop like you’ve never seen it before, through Crash’s eyes. Discover new facets of characters and events from the span of the entire series and beyond, all from the viewpoint of an extroverted empath.

I didn't like this when it first came out. My 2017 review: "Price has built an interesting world populated with a cast of engaging characters, but in this latest entry she drops the 'Story' and indulges in a much too long diversion, filling in Crash's back story and point of view. There's good info there, but at 15:21 this is by far the longest PsyCop story, and the PsyCops are barely in it. This feels like it was meant to be a novella that got out of control."

I liked it much better on this binge series relisten; maybe my problem was I'd waited so long for a new PsyCop segment, this seemed beside the point. But now, I see it as a way to come at the PsyCop world from a different angle, and bring some new depth. ( )

So good! Getting Crash's perspective is illuminating! Do read books 1-7 first to get full benefit from this tour through Crash's life. Even the author's note is great!

I like getting a chance to spend time with Crash (Curtis Ashe, his mother, Red, and the other people who come in and out of his life). I think one of the real delights is getting to see Con Dreyfus from a more open POV than Victor's paranoia tinged viewpoint. It's fun, also, to see Vic from Crash's eyes, first as an annoying pest, then as a friend.

This book also helps to put some of the timeline into perspective.

Gomez Pugh's gift of voices is a major plus on the audio, adding a surprising amount of gravitas to Red's character and using his voice to show how Crash matures throughout the narrative.

I wanted to like this book. I really did. Crash is one of my favorite JCP characters, and I've loved all the Psycops. But I didn't like this book, not even enough to finish it. Either it took too long to get to the story (does it have a story? Is it just in-fighting stylists?), or there wasn't one. I found Crash to be tone-deaf, with cringing opinions on race and with outdated (bordering on insulting) "super gay" dialogue.

Loved it. Crash is much so softer on the inside than I expected, and it was fun seeing all the PsyCop characters through his eyes, Vic in particular. Jacob is a jerk (expected), Vic is oblivious (also expected) and Red seems like a perfect match for Curtis.

Gomez Pugh did a fantastic job in narrating - he's become my favorite narrator (though admittedly I don't have much experience with audiobooks). The way he does each voice and gives them character, the way he managed to capture (imho) the essence of the characters and then act it out... I think I'm in love. And yes, I'm totally fangirling.
