I read this book as part of a cultural exchange with my son. Its main target audience is teenagers who are into Overwatch, because the characters from the game are woven into the plot of the book.

Even though I’m not at all familiar with the Overwatch universe, I enjoyed the book. I liked the main character, a girl named Ifi, who designs and improves robots and has achieved significant success in this field. It’s great that the storyline not only focuses on her calling, but also on her relationships with friends, parents, and other relatives. Ifi faces conflicts and doubts about the significance of her work, experiences dangerous adventures, and, of course, not only improves the world around her, but also becomes a better person herself.

I thought it was a good move to include inserts like these before many chapters, showing the heroine’s social media account. Like modern teenagers in our world, Ifi shares her doubts and experiences here. I read the comments with a smile and followed the changes in the number of the girl’s followers with interest.

I am also very pleased that the author of the book is familiar with writing code herself, as she works as a systems analyst.

Now for the fly in the ointment. I don’t strive to nitpick mistakes and typos in books, I don’t consider myself to be perfectly literate, and I understand that three hundred pages of text simply cannot be perfect. But here, the abundance of “mistakes” slightly interfered with my reading. No spaces between words, incorrect hyphenation, spelling mistakes… This is unfortunate, considering that the book is aimed at teenagers, who already often encounter illiteracy on social media.

Otherwise, I liked the book. I think it would make a good gift for Overwatch fans.
