Imagine That
Imagine That rated it 14 years ago
I started this story with a gentle yet persistent trepidation. It took me a while to adjust to robospeak and slowly, familiarize myself with (on a very shallow level, toes dipped so to speak) the technical terminology.Somewhere along the way, somewhat surprisingly, I became invested in this story a...

I wanted to like this book, especially after seeing some great reviews about it. But, no. It wasn't meant to be.If there's one thing I can't stand about a book it's the overuse of dialogue, which made the book read more like a wanna-be movie script, and this book does exactly that.

Trust me.So what ...

Another fine mess

Let me just say, I welcome our robot overlords, whenever they may arrive. My allegiance is sincere, and not some recent conversion, either. No, I'm no fickle screaming ninny suddenly finding his faith as the monstrous steel hands close inexorably on my skull. Puh-leeeze! Not to toot my own horn,...
