This has been given away previously, so you might want to check to see if you have it before grabbing it.

The free book for June, 2020 is Radix by A. A. Attanasio. I would suggest downloading the .mobi version and converting it to epub. The epub is a total abomination.

I have to say I slogged through that a couple years ago when it was part of a bundle, i believe before publisher's pick was a thing, and I... wasn't a fan.

Yep. And the cover they have is disgusting. It's like Photoshop threw up.
As for how bad it is, It was made with InDesign 11.3 and from there, edited with Sigil 0.8.901. Whoever made this should be fired. Here's the CSS and all it's glory. Code:
body, div, dl, dt, dd, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, pre, code, blockquote { margin:0; padding:0; border-width:0; } body { -epub-hyphens:auto; } @page { margin : 0px 0px 0px 0px; } div.Basic-Text-Frame { border-style:solid;
