First Readers (Beta Readers) discussion

I’m looking for dedicated beta readers for my debut novel, Ghosts of Kurosawa — an action-packed, layered thriller with a touch of sci-fi, at 129,000 words (yes, I know -- its long, but trust me, its worth it)

A bit about your adventure:

Haunted by memories of his former life, Hiro Ichihara tries to live quietly as a college student. But when Niko Shinpachi, a figure from his dark past, resurfaces with a bio-engineered virus threatening global annihilation, Hiro is forced to confront old shadows. To save the woman who cracked his hardened heart and prevent worldwide catastrophe, he must face his own ghosts while keeping his inner beast in check.

This story is intense, layered, and cinematic, blending high-octane action with psychological depth. I’m looking for readers who:

Enjoy thrillers with complex characters
Can provide honest feedback on pacing, character arcs, and readability

If you’re interested, I’d love to send you a digital ARC and hear your thoughts. Your feedback will help make this debut the best it can be before release!
