Great review with detailed analysis. Law, finance, academic and philosophical approach even with good storytelling isn't my cup of tea. But I'm sure many readers will enjoy this well written story. Congrats on BOTD

This is a well-crafted fiction story that would be academically impactful, as it centers on the field of law and would be very much appreciated by people in that field of study.

I'm not too keen on books, fiction or otherwise, that focus on the judicial system, so I might not be the right kind of reader for this one. But it appears that the author has put a lot of thought into the novel and the depth of the characters. So, congrats to him on BOTD.

Law schools hold significant role in educating people who go on to hold powerful positions of historical importance. And to see such responsibility-weighed institution grapple with dilemmas over financial security and moral compass is an intriguing premise to explore. Expertly developed characters seasoned with lengthy philosophical exchanges seem to be a heavy read but worth of the time. This review meticulously captures every aspect of the book. Congratulations to the author on BOTD.

Definitely not my cup of tea, because I have awful memories about the School of Law and, believe me, it says a lot, considering that I personally never attended one. It doesn't mean I am not grateful to accept the gift of a free book! Congrats with BOTD!

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting legal fiction focusing around the various students and professors of St. Sebastian School of Law. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

I am not sure what the review meant by providing depth and authenticity, but it looks like a pretty insightful book for readers who like legal procedures and conflicting motivations between characters.
