The Robots of Gotham

By: Todd McAulty

Narrated by: Graham Winton

A thrilling adventure in a world one step away from total subjugation by machines

After long years of war, the United States has sued for peace, yielding to a brutal coalition of nations ruled by fascist machines. One-quarter of the country is under foreign occupation. Manhattan has been annexed by a weird robot monarchy, and in Tennessee a permanent peace is being delicately negotiated between the battered remnants of the US government and an envoy of implacable machines.

Canadian businessman Barry Simcoe arrives in occupied Chicago days before his hotel is attacked by a rogue war machine. In the aftermath, he meets a dedicated Russian medic with the occupying army and 19 Black Winter, a badly damaged robot. Together they stumble on a machine conspiracy to unleash a horrific plague - and learn that the fabled American resistance is not as extinct as everyone believes. Simcoe races against time to prevent the extermination of all life on the continent...and uncover a secret that America's machine conquerors are desperate to keep hidden.

Terminator with a twist

Post apocalyptic future with super powerful AI dominating humans with their global tech kingdoms like cyber gods.

Happy surprise

I gave this book a chance and I’m glad I did I really enjoyed it. I wish it was part of a series or set, there is so much more that could be told about this world it was kinda sad that it ended and there isn’t more.

Terrific

Such a great story, world building, characters! Wish we could continue the adventure and see what happens next

Very, very good book.

I really enjoyed this book.

Twist and turns within the story allows for many more books to come. My only issue is that they are not available for me to download now!

Kudos to the new writer and choosing a great narrator. Too many time, new books are ruined by poor narration.

A truly unique take on a common theme.

The book was excellent. The author managed to create a truly unique take on the world ruled by machines story. The narrator was good, however regularly quoted characters may have sounded better as different voice actors.
