Review

Eve lives in a place were androids and robots are integrated into everyday life. Eve herself is a mechanic that fixes all kinds of things including robots. But one day, when she is out battling in the arena against another robot, something happens. Now she is on the run and if she gets caught, she will probably die. This sci-fi story is a page turner from the start. The language/jargon used is sometimes hard to follow, but the story itself is still solid. Kristoff delivers not only an action packed sci-fi adventure, but one that makes the readers think- if robots were made to be more human like, should they be in control of what they do or, should they be under human control. And if robots are free to choose, what is to stop them from harming their less powerful creatures, humans.

Overall Book Score: very good
