I understand you didn’t enjoy the book and had issues with the translations (which I’m actually looking into, so thanks for that). Sharing an extremely critical review is completely your right as a reader. However, falsely accusing an author—especially an indie author—of using AI and presenting it as though it were a fact, based solely on your impression, is unfair and harmful.
I work with an established editor, and thankfully I still have my original handwritten drafts, so I know exactly how this book was written.
Your review thankfully won’t affect my livelihood. But I’m writing in the hope that you won’t make similar accusations against other indie authors in the future, as claims like these can seriously harm their reputations and livelihoods.
It’s okay to leave a one-star review. It’s okay to say what you didn’t like. But whenever possible, I hope you’ll keep criticism constructive and avoid presenting speculation as fact simply because you have the ability to post it publicly.
