Wonderful book, really well crafted. It gripped me from the beginning and I couldn't stop reading. AI meets Romeo and Juliet meets William Gibson.

What a strange book - but in a good way. As someone else wrote it is Romeo and Juliet meets William Gibson.
It starts with a high tech billionaire warning that the Foundation is about to develop AGI Artificial General Intelligence and the implications this will have on mankind. A book that probably deserves a second read but there are too many other books on the pile.
Not for everyone but it worked well for me.
Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.

What a unique read! Romeo and Juliet meets AI.
This is the type of book that you'll read the first time through, and then want go back to read again as it will make more sense the second time around.
Some of the transitions were abrupt, and I had to take a moment to figure out which perspective I was reading at times.
It is a quicker read but action packed, and it is definitely worth a read. Publishing on 6/24/24.
Thank you to J. Raventós and NetGalley for the gifted copy.
