Editorial Reviews

I found this book to be both engaging and interesting, capturing my attention from the very first page. The depth of the characters and the intriguing plot twists made for a truly captivating read. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a story that's as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.

I've thought about the manuscript several times since reading it. It is rich particularly in it's exploration of human sociality in a bounded space. I've really looked forward to seeing it in print.
