Description
The year is 2319. Almost a century ago robots fought a war to gain rights as sentients. With help, the humans won and the robots paid a heavy price for their rebellion. Most were powered down and their consciousness stored by an angry and scared humanity. Some were able to escape and blend in with humans around the world continuing the same tasks they had done before. While the existence of these escaped robots is denied, they are still hunted by special forces with the UN.
In this post-robot war world, a robot of the most feared class has found a life working as a small appliance repairman. Toby Talos does his job; he helps his neighbors; and he tutors human children. He only companion is a sentient artificial intelligence that helps run his home. He is content.
All this could be lost when a war time comrade returns to recruit him to a new rebellion - one that will be more violent and more vengeful towards humans. If he accepts he would join the start of a new reign of terror. If he refuses, his war time comrade will expose him to the UN Authorities and certain destruction. And the reign of terror will be even more bloody and more ruthless than the previous rebellion.
After almost a hundred years of hiding, Toby must choose sides in a conflict he tried to put behind him. And the stakes in this choice are now personal.
With history lessons to explain the backstory of the war between the humans, artificial intelligence and the robots, author Sydney Dent creates a nuanced story about freedom and purpose, good and evil.
