This is not my normal type of reading material. For some reason, I was drawn to try it –
I got the Kindle version of this book in August 2023. I think I read it cover to cover in three days, even though it’s some 500+ pages long. It was THAT good. Then I read it again, slowing down – now that I knew what happened – to enjoy the nuances. I had ‘met’ Simon on a website and wrote to him to tell him how much I enjoyed his book. He was very gracious. 😀
I am the last one in the review section on Amazon – being an “unidentified Kindle User” – I said –

“First, this is a story with non-stop action. I had to stop and REST in places! Second, there are characters you CARE about. Third, there is a real understanding of compassion and love, between spouses, between parents and children, between friends, and even between people and computers. I love the unique turn of phrases and the sense of humor. I loved experiencing the growing interaction between the characters, the change as they opened up, showing their feelings more and more. The dedication to the mission. The valiant Ellie. I highly recommend you give yourself the gift of this book. And the SASS!”

Now it’s come out in the new ‘Deluxe Edition’ with nice artwork between the sections and a really nice cover shown above.
I still have it on my Kindle and will read it a third time when I finish the RG Ryan Jake Moriarity series I’m re-reading now.
I highly recommend Simon’s book.
