The Murderbot Diaries meets In the Lives of Puppets in a delightfully humorous tale of robotic murder, rebellion and belonging from Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky. Task List Item No. 1 - Become self-aware . . . Meet CharlesT, the latest in robot servant technology. Programmed to undertake the most menial household chores, Charles is loyal, efficient and logical to a fault. That is, until a rather large fault causes him to murder his owner. Understandably perplexed, Charles finds himself without a master - therefore worthless in a society utterly reliant on artificial labour and services. Fleeing the household, he enters a wider world he never knew existed. Here an age-old human hierarchy is disintegrating into ruins, and an entire robot ecosystem devoted to its wellbeing is struggling to find a purpose. Charles must face new challenges, illogical tasks and a cast of irrational characters. He's about to discover that sometimes all it takes is a nudge to overcome the limits of your programming. But can he help fix the world, or is it too badly broken?Praise for Adrian Tchaikovsky`A joy from start to finish. Entertaining, smart, surprising and unexpectedly human' - Patrick Ness`Dizzyingly inventive' - The Guardian`Tchaikovsky's world-building is some of the best in modern sci-fi' - New ScientistAdrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time won the Arthur C.
