I need the next Draconis book ASAP! This was just getting to the best part for Zen to kick arse.

This was a really interesting book and I have been looking forward to the next one in the series. However when I wrote this comment, it had been 9 months since I read the book. The 4 books in the series were all published in a 6 month period between April and September 2020, which is beginning to make me worry something may have happened to the author.

Update 22/7/2021 - Happily Book 5 'Armour' was released today

Good Story

Zen is on a roll again, coming up with great ideas left and right. I liked several of her hacking escapades. The highlight of the story for me was the home visit by her family. It was fun and her sounded so cute! The low point of this story was Zen’s business ventures. I have no problem with someone profiting from the crisis, but she has inside information and has influence with those in charge. It seemed to be unethical. I will admit that the products seem cool. Interesting series continue the good work!

MC has gotten very unlikable.

With a casual disregard for what anyone else thinks and being the best at whatever she puts her hand at, she is no different than a spoiled rich kid that believes themselves above the rules.

Very good read.

There are a few errors where people’s names changed, but the story line and world situation are really well done. I’m looking forward to the next book!
