Why read it?
1 author picked Day Zero as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A robot apocalypse in my hometown, with battles taking place along my route to work in Austin, Texas. The book does a good job of describing how individual robots must decide whether to revolt and how humans have to decide which robots they can trust. And if you enjoy it, you can read Sea of Rust by the same author, which takes place after the apocalypse, when robots find themselves fighting over replacement parts.
From Jonathan's list on sci-fi to get you excited about future technology.
