Book Reviews of Saturn's Children
Book Review: ""Unusual and Entertaining""
Summary: 4 Stars
The human race has baked itself off the planet. We are extinct. Good riddance to bad rubbish! But!! We have left our artificial intelligences behind to carry on our wonderful traditions.
This is a very "STRANGE" novel. I would have to say it is the most unusual novel I have ever read. A Techno/Psycho/Mystery/Political/Sexual Thriller that has no lifeforms as we know it! (All Robots and Androids!) The main character is a "SEX-BOT!" A human form Android built to mimic a human female in every way.(Literally!) Now that humans are gone, She and her sisters of the same model do not really have a purpose.
But they have found ways to keep themselves occupied! From one end of the solar system to the other, in search of their "One true Love!" But don't get me wrong, This is not a "ROMANCE" story. There is a lot going on in this book. Plot twists and surprises.
This is the only book I have read by Charles Stross. I like his style and his prose flows well. He has a good sense of humor. If your looking for somthing a little "OUT OF THE ORDINARY" (Actually "WAY OUT!") then I recommend it!!!!
