A fantastic post-apocalyptic story look at the lives of people across the world all dealing with the rise and aftermath of a self-aware super computer and the robots it has awakened under its control. The story starts at the end with the survivors, and reveals through snippets the stories of the pe...
I'm not rating this because I borrowed this book from the library only for the Diana Gabaldon story. And while it was a satisfying story, I think it left me with more questions than I started with. But that's typical Diana Gabaldon, I think. I'm definitely glad I read it. It gives me a different per...

Troszkę się obawiałem tej książki, a to ze względu na wybite na okładce słowa Stephena Kinga, obiecujące że “Robokalipsa” jest świetnym tytułem. Ostatnio jak dałem się Mistrzowi nabrać sięgnąłem po “Przejście” Justina Cronina, i była to lektura zdecydowanie słaba. Na szczęście tym razem King wiedzia...
I greatly enjoyed this creepy story of robots gone mad, primarily because of the human element. The story is told through narratives of several different people - a phone phreak, an asian enthusiast, a native american policeman, an american soldier, and a politician's daughter among them. The tech h...
(This review is based on an ARC.) How to rate an anthology has always been a struggle. Invariably, they end up in the 3-star "I don't know" category. Plus I seldom read all the stories. So for this exercise, I'll give ratings for each story that I actually try to read.5-star4-star"Hel’s Half-Acr...
While I thought this was a pretty good book, too many things kept it from being phenomenal or even memorable, and I struggled to find anything that would convince me that it deserved any more than a 3 star rating.First of all, the plot, which was interesting and held potential, was way too thin and ...
‘The Mad Scientist’s Guide to World Domination’ is a collection of utterly fantastic shorts, edited by John Joseph Adams.It is a rare event when one can say they equally enjoyed each short as much as each other, in an anthology. Generally there are one or two that don’t quite capture the reader’s in...
This book may be worth a higher rating, but several personal issues caused me to have problems with it. The first issue was that I read it directly after The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and I was (am) still on an obsessive high with that book.The second issue was that Mass Effect ruins everything, con...
"Robokalipsa" to nie powieść, to zbiór odpowiadań, bo tak można odebrać specyficzną budowę tejże publikacji. Akcja skaczę z jednego miejsca na drugie w sporych odstępach czasu, jednak mi to zachowuję spójność. Książka wciąga, więc uwaga bo szybko skończycie ;). Wizja Wilsona jest ciekawa, jednak spo...
