»Splendid publicity for real, genuine authors. […] A delightfully dark-humoured text on truth and deception.«

»Spot on and audacious. And ultimately, Deceptively Real is a proper thriller where the revelation is suspended to the last line.«

»An accomplished interplay displaying that AI doesn’t have to mean the end of literature.«

»An amusing and light-footed novel. A novel bearing evidence that artificial intelligence doesn’t have to be the end of literature – it can be played with beautifully.«
