Stranded on a world of sorcery and monsters, one AI will unleash the fury of the universe to protect her humans.

Sapphiria was performing her duties as a fleet admiral of the Terran Federation, leading a goodwill tour of the fringe worlds, when she was caught in a hyperspace anomaly.

Now, she’s crash-landed on a planet ruled by magic and monsters, cut off from reinforcements, with only her escape pod and her genius to rely on. But she’s not just any survivor—she’s an Artificial Intelligence forged from the minds of humans and fragments of the Federation's greatest AIs.

Luckily, her pod is a miniature factory, equipped with the means and knowledge to build an entire colony from scratch.

When she discovers a scattered human population besieged by the undead remnants of a fallen necromancer empire, Sapphiria makes a simple calculation.

Protect the squishies. Eliminate the threat.

And if the monsters stand in her way… it’ll be their funeral.

English is not my first language so ia apologise in advance

having read the first 3 books in alex weeks/playwars other seires "fallen world" and having seen this book rated only 4.4 stars i came in to this with mediocre expectations however I was quite pleasantly suprised, their writing has clearly improved by quite allot in last few years and this might actually make me pick up fallen world again to see that improvement, the plot was great the sci fi and fantasy elements were done really well, the charecter work was great which is something I often find lacking in Books like this and overall the book was a great experience, if I had to give constructive criticism then I would say some of the exposition felt forced and that when the mc was talking about the weird timeline I was very confused though maybe that is a function of the audiobook, however those were definitely minor issues and overall I loved this book!
the narration was also great!
over all definitely deserves 5 stars

a suprising delight

I listened to the entire story because the premise sounded interesting.
Feels rather like a filler book - nothing much happens and the dialogue was somewhat boring and repetitive.

Don't think I'll buy any sequel.

Just not my cup of tea.

Not for me
