Zero stars. This “book” is so clearly AI written it was painful to get through. Did anyone even edit this??? I read three chapters in a row that were just retellings of the same scene. It made absolutely no sense at all and was full of contradictions. Don’t waste your time.
The first half of the book was so exciting that I literally couldn’t put it down. As soon as I got to chapter 7 the chapters were different versions of things that already happened and nothing made sense. AI was certainly used and not even proofread.
