pretty good. grammatical errors distracted me consistently and it was a little hard to follow the plot. it felt like it jumped around a bit. has great potential. maybe color wouldve helped differentiate between characters and made it easier to follow along. I think if it was a bit more fleshed out it would be more resonant. The cosmic horror aspect with the pyramid was interesting. I wouldve liked to see more of its effects internally. watching the pyramid drive each person crazy and having that experience tailored to each character wouldve been super cool to see. a little more psychological war fare and crazy alien world building wouldve gone a long way. i think this book wouldve benefitted from being a bit longer.
