"This was a bit frightening since half of the things mentioned in the book were actually being developed and taking over things in real life… (ex: AI, AI art, tech, full self driving teslas?! [not autopilot]). Sometimes I had to put down the book and be like “wait this is literally happening RIGHT now!”
except the plot twist was a bit predictable, I knew it before it was said, but it was still good!
The book is kinda like a combo of Angels and Demons and Inferno,
7/10"
"Having just returned from Spain, I thoroughly enjoyed the setting of the book and the vivid descriptions. The concept of this book is very interesting if you’re someone who has ever questioned religion/science. "
