Reader voices
The most-liked reviews on Hardcover (credited to their authors).
“Good read with some nuanced situations regarding what it is to be human. Taking the comments and situations and applying them to a thought experiment for myself in, “How would I react?” Or “What would I do or think?” Makes this book all the more…”
“This was an enjoyable blend of sci-fi and mystery. I quite like the main character and his partner, along with the smaller characters. The mystery part might have not been as mysterious but the the path to solve it was unique and fun to follow.”
