Reviews
A glorious delve into the many guises of robots and artificial intelligences. There is a wealth and a range in the stories that have clearly been chosen with some thought... This book is a joy and a triumph. There's nothing artificial about this one - We, Robots shows us a book not afraid to show us the genre's past but more importantly where it is going. Recommended most highly, and definitely one of my books of the year' * SFF World *
We, Robots: Artificial Intelligence in 100 Stories is the new cyborg overlord of literary compendiums... The scope and variety of this short story collection is impressive' * Independent *
PRAISE FOR SIMON INGS: 'Simon Ings goes into orbit as a science fiction master' Daily Mail. 'Entertaining and intelligent' Time Out, Hot Head. 'Both intriguing and unsettling. You should read Simon Ings' iD Magazine. 'Simon Ings, my telepathic abilities tell me, has a serious career ahead of him' Guardian. 'A grim, gripping and unrelenting tale' * Irish Independent, on Painkillers *
