I had this book on my TBR for a long time, and picked it up from the library last week. Here is the Kobo store’s summary:In the near future, at a moment no one will notice, all the dazzling technology that runs our world will unite and turn against us.

Via http://onlectus.blogspot.com/2012/12/robopocalypse-by-daniel-h-wilson.htmlArmy guys might dig this book, I, on the contrary couldn’t even finish it!

I picked this one up as soon as I saw it, though I haven't read anything else by this author. The idea of it really intrigued me, though, and I couldn't wait to read it. And while it didn't go the way that I thought it would, it was still really, really good.I spent so much time just wrapped up in ...
