A great short-form novel

My nephew loved this book, it was engaging, but more than that short-form which in the day of low attention spans is critical.
Even though it was short-form, it was still packed with stories about technology, love, deception, memory, and imagination, everything a young teen is into!

Loved it!

I'm a big fan of sci-fi, having read Heinlein and Asimov as a kid. Now all the things they wrote about, like robots, are starting to come true. Likewise, Phoenix Rising feels real as it uses technologies that in part exist today, but clearly have along way to go (like AI), and the plot moves quickly to a great end. Thoroughly recommend.

A Quick yet Edge-of-Your Seat Thriller!

This short but exciting thriller takes you into a futuristic world of drones, espionage and high stakes action. The narrator does a great job bringing the story to life, which adds to the tension and intensity as the main character faces life-or-death dangers. Fans of techno thrillers and non-stop action will find plenty here to keep them on the edge of their seat. A quick but suspenseful listen!
