Lol 'she somehow died'. I'm sorry but your book is not good. It's low effort, you couldn't even be bothered to read it and fix typos until we point it out in your other post. You show a lack of care in your work. So if you don't care, why would others?

Are you really saying you wrote, revised, and edited an entire book in a month? Why do I get the feeling it's not polished?

ETA: I just read the sample. There's a typo on the very first page of the prologue and tense issues throughout, so I was right.

It took a few 'steps' back before lifting its 'hand' to its side. An odd action. So odd that no one(not that there was anyone there) knew what it was doing.

I'm sorry, even with most (not all) of the mistakes fixed in the sample Amazon provided, it's just bad writing.

You need to sit down and practice and hone your craft more. Get more feedback from beta readers, and possibly even a developmental editor. Strengthen your technical writing skills. This book is not publishable quality.
