”This kind of style is reminiscent of many of the Asimov novels I have enjoyed. Highly recommended for all especially SF fans!!”
”So many themes intertwine: personal drama (love, sacrifice, meaning of survival), political context (life in a free vs authoritarian regime), professional strife and struggles, the role of chance (or is it providence?), but “the glue” is the concept of consciousness.”
”This was a really well done novel, it had everything that I was looking for from the description. The characters worked in the story being told and enjoyed how everything worked overall. Alexandru Czimbor has a great writing style and can't wait for more.”
”"Sentience Hazard" is not merely a speculative tale; it is a cautionary fable urging readers to confront humanity’s most pressing question: can we wield the power of creation responsibly? Like Oppenheimer contemplating the atomic bomb, Czimbor’s characters grapple with the morality of their actions, leaving readers to ponder their own roles in an increasingly AI-driven world.”
