Excellent, though slightly flawed. It held my rapt attention, even when certain twists were telegraphed. Quite impressive overall.

A profoundly satisfying read. I became deeply invested in the protagonist's journey. A masterclass in storytelling. An effortless 5 stars.

An acceptable diversion. It verged on repetitive in the second act. A more concise edit would have served it well. Suitable if your reading queue is empty.
