Max Deepfake Revenge is a fictional techno-thriller novel written by Anthony Silman. It consists of twenty-nine chapters that follow the lives of some of Olderbury's citizens that are involved in its drug scene.

The book begins by introducing Kevin Taylor, as known as Sniff. Sniff is a major drug dealer in Olderbury who tends to get drunk or stoned occasionally. One night, in a high and drunken haze, Sniff decides to attack and attempt to sexually assault the beautiful Jo Hange at her doorstep, forcing her to strike him with a knife in self-defense. However, Olderbury's questionable criminal justice system sees Jo as the one who has to prove her innocence. Dan, Jo's lover, is convinced of her innocence and decides to enact revenge on Sniff using a plan involving deepfake social media posts and character assassination. But how deep are the roots of Olderbury's drug organization? And who will pay the price for Dan's quest for revenge? Find out in this intriguing book.

There are a lot of positive aspects to this book. I truly loved the language used. The author used a lot of colorful and rather humorous metaphors in his descriptions. He also employed powerful imagery in his description of Olderbury and all the locations the story takes place, thus, doing a great job of setting the scenes. Anthony also gives attention to character development by providing adequate backstories for essential characters to give an understanding of their actions.

I enjoyed the characters and their interactions with each other. I liked Sniff. He had interesting mannerisms, and a very colorful vocabulary garnished with hilarious profanities. I also liked the headstrong Jo and the ever-loyal Max. The book is filled with a lot of intrigue and intentional cliffhangers in between chapters that are just as entertaining as they are mildly upsetting. I also appreciate the book's moderate length. The book certainly had enough material to be much longer than its two hundred and two pages, but the author chose not to drag the plot out for too long, for which I am very grateful. Ultimately, the book was a lovely and entertaining read.

I found no negative aspects in the book. I found very few errors in the book as it was professionally edited. Therefore, I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. I found the book intriguing and entertaining. I loved the characters and their dialogue with each other. I was completely satisfied with the book and could not rate it any lower. I recommend this book to lovers of techno-thriller books and lovers of thrillers in general.

Max Deepfake Revenge has an interesting storyline. The summary of the book got me hooked. I want to know how the story ended. I wonder who had to pay the price for Dan's revenge, or did anybody even pay the price? I guess I would have to read this book to find out. Thank you fir this beautiful review. I really love how you started and ended it. Well done!
