"The Martian" meets "Edge of Tomorrow" in the World Trade Center. Trapped on the 93rd floor of the World Trade Center’s South Tower, Mark Sandini has only 56 minutes to live. But when the tower’s collapse triggers a time loop that takes him back to the moment of impact, he starts to plan. As friends and enemies help and hinder him, as he’s torn between his own survival and saving his new love, he slowly pieces together the building’s secrets . . . and the only possible escape route. The South Tower isn’t just a riveting adventure story. It’s an exploration of what it takes to survive against impossible odds in the face of unprecedented events and gridlocked thinking. As once again, bewildered and complacent officials condemn thousands of people to unnecessary deaths, The South Tower is a wake-up call: survival is your own responsibility.

this is a story, yes, not a novel. no identifiable characters, no plot, no themes, nothing besides loosely strung-together ideas; perfect for a blog post, dissatisfying as a work of fiction. listening i wondered: if not gonna put in enough effort to get a suitable AI voice then why even narrate it? then i found myself wondering why it’d ever be written. seems like it’s written by a blogger and that’s it: this is one big elaborate cope for someone who was obviously not at all involved in or even affected by 9/11. as someone studying 9/11, esp how it appears in fiction, this is the 2nd worst treatment of the event. the charlie sheen movie is the worst. took me months to finish but i did, and am not thoroughly annoyed that this exists.

a “novel” that shouldve been a blog post

Literally an awful book, repetitive and so poorly written I hated every page and stopped reading

Awful

Very interesting concept for the story. There was one bit involving an attempted assault that I thought was unnecessary, and due to the time loop it happened multiple times. Other than that, it was a satisfying story.

However, the virtual voice narration is awful! Bad inflection and so many mispronunciations. It sometimes said the same word differently within one sentence!

Interesting story, bad narration
