An interesting and well written plot. Good characters. The virtual voice detracts from enjoying the story.

Romance

The story was excellent. I would like to comment on the narration. When we were kids we were given a thorough education IN GRADE SCHOOL on proper pronunciation and use of the English language. Now not just the virtual but thr real narrators have a new pronunciation language it seems. Point in fact that thist narrator could not decide on proper pronouncement of Sophia
Let us not forget even if narration was computer generated, at some point a human did the input of data for the computer.
