if I could go back and tell myself not to start this these books I would. there’s a reason they were super cheap and I should have known better. The story plays out like a teenaged sociopath thinking about what he would do when he was older. he would be the best programmer that loved his wife more than anything. and she would die do to the only mistake he ever made! then he gets to play the best game ever that’s based on his own best program ever….it just goes on and on. he has an angsty daughter that’s even smarter than him…just stay away it gets so much worse.
