I picked this up because it was like 1$ and the cover of my kindle edition had a robot (Silas) on a horse. That was enough to sell me, honestly. I didn't expect much, no offense, some indies are gems and some are, well, not. Spoiler alert: this one is. I was blown away with this story. I fell in love with Silas on page one and never looked back. It's a buddy story, a bromance, if you will, about a dude and a robot setting out to find their place in an aggressive post-war apocalyptic setting where simulated intelligence rules the world.
The danger feels real, the stakes are high, and above all, the action is so COOL. There's no other word to describe it, really. The characters are good and believable, the pace is fast even though the story is told mostly through dialogue. This book checked a lot of boxes for me and I had fun the entire time I was reading it. Thank you, Mr Yee, for this sugar ripping, gun totin', grease-blasting ride.
