Publisher's summary

Amy Peterson is a von Neumann machine – a self-replicating humanoid robot.

But Amy is a robot unlike any other - her failsafe has broken, meaning she is no longer sworn to protect humans. She and her equally synthetic partner Javier are holed up in their own robot paradise.

But the world that wanted so much to get hold of Amy - to imprison her, melt her down, or use her as a weapon - will not stay away much longer. Javier must run, to Mecha, the robot kingdom, in search of salvation…or death.

The extraordinary second novel from the author of vN.

Critic reviews

"A strikingly fresh work of mind-expanding science fiction." (iO9.com)
"In Ashby’s expert hands, vN cuts a painful incision into the emotional complexity of oppression in our society, and the way love can feed the worst kinds of hate." ( The Guardian)

Overly sexual for no real reason

Thos was a big disappointment from the first book. It took the characters the author spent all of vN giving complex dimensionality and turned them into 1 dimentional sexual creatures with mild story.

Confusing

Too confusing with too many characters. Also there’s too much theatricals in the performance, taking focus from the story.
