The First Reviews are in!
I really enjoyed this one. The characters hooked me and the flow of the story was unique and thrilling. While many stories in this genre go a bit too far in describing the novel tech setting, this one balanced the tech details against the relevant structural changes to society and local relationships.
Furthermore, there is a kind of allegory about debt and gambling/risk buried in the plot (amongst other lessons) that is very enjoyable. I think this would make a great movie with great fight scenes, bars and forest vibes.
Have passed the book on to a few others with a wide range of ages and they have enjoyed it too.
Lastly, I was slightly sad when I finished it and haven’t felt that way about a book for a while.” – DC
“Lots of work went into the world-building and Sivi Simberg has a loveable slightly quirky style.
It’s a hidden gem in the self-published crowd and I hope that in time it gets the visibility it deserves.” – Guillaume
“Mind-blowing fantasy by an original writer. Beautiful cover design.” – Porkchop Express
