Like the radio show , I think the book over stretches itself often and that the dialogue drags.
In essence, this is still a mystery and K is still a detective. The mystery is a little too big, and the detective a little too precious to be a great novel in my opinion.
I adore all the conspiracy theories and Easter eggs from other works from Miles’s universe (Tanis, Black Tapes). I enjoy how much esoterica and tech is packed into his little church of what if. It’s ambitious and I respect that immensely.

K, our main character, is playing a game called Rabbits... but you don't talk about it. Kind of like Fight Club. The first rule is don't talk about it. It is an alternate reality game. You use the reality around you to find patterns. Like the mandela affect, or easter eggs in media. The patterns intensify the deeper you get in the game and closer you are to winning. It is an underground, unknown, dark web, style game. Win the game and allegedly you get a life altering prize.
One day K is approached by a billionaire, Allan Scarpio, who allegedly won the 9th iteration of the game. He tells K that if they don't fix the game before the next iteration (11) begins, the world might end. Then Scarpio dissappears. Now K has to dollow the patterns, solve and win the game, stay alive, and save the world. All withiut knowing anything about the game, how to win, or who to trust.
This book was INTENSE! In the first 100 pages I just felt a little confused. Then all of a sudden it picked up, it all clicked and I couldn't put it down! I am blown away at how everything fit together and how great the flow, plot, and characters are. I hope there will be some special editions of this book. I NEED THEM ALL. I'm already planning by tattoo 😂🙌🏼🔥
