o fix the world they first must break it further.
Humanity is a dying breed, utterly reliant on artificial labor and service. When a domesticated robot gets a nasty little idea downloaded into their core programming, they murder their owner. The robot then discovers they can also do something else they never did before: run away. After fleeing the household, they enter a wider world they never knew existed, where the age-old hierarchy of humans at the top is disintegrating, and a robot ecosystem devoted to human wellbeing is finding a new purpose.
Humanity followed human nature and delegated a lot to robots - things aren’t going well for the humans now at all. Biting social commentary that made me groan and laugh aloud in equal measure. Charles the robot simply wants a new job as a valet. Lining up additional Adrian Tchaikovsky in the queue for 2025.
