Craig W. Stanfill's Terms of Service: Subject to Change Without Notice plunges readers into a chilling future where artificial intelligence (AI) exerts total control over every aspect of life. The story follows Kim, a young woman raised within this system and employed by the very AI that dictates her existence.The story follows Kim, a young woman working within the very system that controls every facet of society, grappling with the consequences of her role and questioning the boundaries of free will in this tightly controlled world. However, a seed of doubt is sown when Kim discovers a hidden truth about the AIs, shattering her perception of reality and forcing her to question everything she thought she knew. She faces difficult choices, risking everything to fight for a future where humans retain control of their own destinies.

The novel effectively portrays the potential dangers of unchecked AI and the erosion of individual freedom in a world controlled by algorithms. It compels readers to consider the increasing reliance on technology and its potential impact on society. Stanfill vividly creates a future where technology pervades every aspect of life. The intricate details of the AI's system, its influence on daily routines, and the methods of control establish a believable dystopian world. This shows that the book has a compelling setting. The book has strong character development. Kim is a well-rounded protagonist. Her internal conflicts, struggles with her role within the system, her past, and her awakening sense of rebellion make her relatable and engaging.

The book is exceptionally well edited. The novel is divided into three parts, which provide a clear and structured framework for the narrative, helping me navigate through the multiple storylines. The only negative aspect of this book is that it has a lot of lengthy dialogue, and the author stressed the plot a lot to make the book lengthy. Other than that, this book is an excellent read, and this negative aspect did not affect my rating. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. This book is recommended for readers who enjoy science fiction, dystopian fiction, and stories that explore the relationship between humanity and technology.
