United States, 17th Dec 2024, –

Words of the Earth described the novel as “a luminous blend of speculation, intellect, and a poet’s love for Earth’s precious balance,” praising its ability to explore humanity’s precarious relationship with artificial intelligence and technology while incorporating themes of ecological awareness and sustainability. The review also noted: “Alexandru Czimbor’s Sentience Hazard plunges into this philosophical mire with an authenticity that rivals contemporary debates on ethics and AI… Czimbor’s richly crafted characters, tensions rooted in present-day dilemmas, and an ending as pensive as it is thought-provoking cement Sentience Hazard as a hopeful, gripping modern parable.”
