Or, at least I HOPE this is AI slop. Because if it was written by a human, it's the worst written thing that's ever touched my Kindle.
The repetition is mind-boggling. Statements - even entire paragraphs - repeated nearly word for word, sometimes less than a few pages apart. Even the smut is trite and repetitive. The lack of editing or even simple PROOFREADING is criminal.
I wouldn't recommend this to anybody. Nobody should read it.
I usually like x-rated scenes as much as the next guy; But this is overdone. ~30% of the content in detail that is both excessive and repetitive (therefore boring). They contribute almost nothing to the development of the story line. Which is a shame. The story lines (there are 3 outstanding) that are interesting, interrelated and worthy of the story all by themselves w/o the x rated elements.
There are several conversations and system notifications that don't seem to fit with previous occurrences in the series, including bond levels reaching the same threshold repeatedly, almost identical conversations between people repeated as if the previous hadn't happened, and such. But overall, a good read.
