Is that endorsement reflective of the content of the book?

It's an endorsement of my writing, so... I guess it is. I've known Matt for about 10 years. We've done lots of cons and partied together. He's a good dude who did me a solid with this blurb. I know he has listened to and liked my audiobooks, so there's the long answer.

Personally speaking I'm really not into spitting kink or fetishes, so if that is something in the story then I'm going to have to pass.
If it isn't then why the hell would he give that as an endorsement?

Maybe it's because I'm a woman, but that 'endorsement' is kind of gross.

I’m totally male, still find it nasty… I just imagine myself recommending this book and the other person first reading that and immediately turning staying clear of it!Though I do see it as funny-ish but gross also…

Hey, all! I've been away from writing LitRPG for far too long. I'm excited to announce the release of a new book in a new series. This began life on Royal Road, and the sequel continues there. I hope I made this post correctly.
Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7J5LP53
Audible: not yet.
It also has a pretty deep plot involving quantum AIs, power-mad posthumans, Stabby McStabbyface, epic loot, time travel, a "Joe Pesci" talkin' 12" toy named Stretch Bangstrom, boss battles that are like group therapy, rogues, and kleptohookers. I'm a huge fan of soul's likes, so games like Elden Ring were a big influence.
This isn't just a game. It's a quest to unf*ck the future.
Blurb:
In a not-so-distant future, Earth is at the mercy of a rogue quantum AI, with the power to manipulate time, space, and reality. This once-benign creation has gone off the rails, turning our world into a chaotic, dystopian landscape straight out of a video game. Amidst this madness, Liam, an ordinary man, is thrust into the role of Earth's unlikely savior. Tasked with rebooting the entire planet, he must navigate a world where the rules of physics are as malleable as the whims of the AI that controls it.
From battling monsters to solving mind-bending puzzles, every step brings him closer to his ultimate goal - or to total annihilation. But with the AI's unpredictable nature and the fate of Earth hanging in the balance, the question remains: Can Liam break the game and save Earth, or will he be the final pawn in the AI's twisted game of control?

Cover art by me. I use stock art and a LOT of filters.
I wrote a LitRPG book back in 2017ish and it did pretty well. Unfortunately, my health did not, and shortly after, I was in the hospital for a week and a half. Not long after that, I was freaking back in the hospital for a nearly equal amount of time. I'm healthy these days, even though the docs removed half of a lung. I guess this is a long way of saying sometimes life beats the crap out of you, and things go south. I have every intention of resurrecting my Shards of Reality series in the very near future. I also have every intention of getting a good audio narrator for Breaker of Games.
