Story2 out of 5 stars 1
World War Three lasted 12 days. Twelve days was all it took for mankind to devastate the planet and almost eradicate the human race. No victor emerged from the ashes and billions lost their lives. We survivors lived through the bleakest of winters. A primal existence became the new order, and the little that remained of our humanity hung in the balance. Then one man stood up and changed the world. I believed, as did everyone else, that he was the hero of our time, the man who had saved us from our own demise.

Story4 out of 5 stars 7
The epidemic struck at the end of the Third World War. Fighting over oil, power, and religion, governments ignored the rise of an antibacterial-resistant plague. In just five years, the Earth was annihilated. Only one city survived - Etyom - a frozen hellhole in northern Siberia, engulfed in endless conflict. The year is 2251. Within the walled city of Lower Etyom dwell the Robusts - descendants of the poor who were immune to the New Black Death. Above them, in a metropolis of pristine platforms called lillipads, live the Graciles - the progeny of the superrich, bio-engineered to resist the plague.

Household robot Silas is in serious need of a safe haven. After a brutal war that has pitted man against machine and ended with no clear winner, he's left scavenging the ruined streets and avoiding deadly marauders. To secure supplies and reunite with the rest of his kind, Silas must find a partner. Deacon trusts no one in a devastated world. After the death of his family left him hollow, he never expected a hapless robot to stir his sympathy. Against his better judgment, he guides the mechanoid on its journey home despite the distinct possibility of a deadly betrayal.
Publisher's Summary
Our world was perfect - until we broke the law: Don't go out at night.
Utopian by day, dystopian by night; this is the world I recently discovered. I now struggle with the fact that our whole society has been based on a lie. There's only one way to change it - conquer the darkness we've all been raised to fear.
Live the lie; fight to the death; become a Handler. It's the only way.

Not at all what I was expecting. Total mind f%$k.
The Story
WOW! I don't know what I expected, but it definitely wasn't this. Handler by Tish Thawer is a total mind F%$k! Talk about falling down the rabbit hole, Cole's life as he knows is GONE. How can i describe it? This story is the Hunger Games, MMA, and the Matrix all rolled into one with a bizarre, unique twist. <---- See, mind f%$k. This is NOT your run of mill dystopian novel. Thawer has crafted a original, thrilling tale that left this reader slack jawed and wanting more.
The Narrator
John Pirhalla did a fantastic job bringing this story to life for me. The intense fight scenes, the chill of sneaking down hallways, the loss of friends, he brought the feels to all of it. I hope he will be on board for the rest of the series.
