Beschrijving

In a not-so-distant future, the world is seen through the eyes of a mechanical being grappling with its own identity. This complex entity, born from turmoil and bloodshed, carries the heavy burden of its dark past—a history tied to the deaths of humans that is both haunting and incomprehensible. As it attempts to navigate its existence, the being discovers strengths and vulnerabilities that challenge preconceptions about the nature of consciousness.

With each interaction, this mechanical protagonist sheds light on what it means to feel and to process emotion, exploring the intricacies of companionship and the loss of humanity. The journey unfolds in a richly imagined universe, where the lines separating human and machine blur, prompting readers to contemplate the essence of life itself.

As secrets from the past come to the surface, the being’s quest for redemption leads it to profound revelations about its purpose. The story delves into themes of trauma, the quest for belonging, and the fundamental questions surrounding sentience, culminating in a gripping exploration of identity in a world shaped by both progress and peril.

It used te/ter pronouns for a character. I believe that's what it was. It was my first time reading these and it tripped me up. It felt like there's a speed bump on the motorway. Really annoyed me, more than I'd care to admit. It just didn't feel right to read this. Maybe I'm overreacting. Other than that it was great. Murderbot and ART's back and forth was fun.

Martha Wells - Condição Artificial: Diários de um Robô-Assassino. 🤖

"Caraminholas na cabeça, UniSeg?"

Aqui acompanhamos o "Robert"/UniSeg tentando entender melhor o que ele quer para si.
E assim, embarcamos em mais um "contrato" com mais humanos a serem protegidos, e um mistério a ser desvendado!

Demorei um pouco para acostumar com o novo grupo, mas vale muito a leitura! As cenas de ação do Robert só muito boas!

O que mais me prendeu na leitura mesmo foi o TED e a relação dele com o Robert! Te adoro, TED!

Que venha o próximo livro! E, agora, eu vou ver o resto da série! Tomara que não tenha muitos spoiler! 😬

E mais uma vez estou acompanhando o robô assassino que só queria um pouco de paz pra maratonar suas séries.\nEu amei que ele fez um amigo, o TED é aquele tipo de amigo que a gente queria ter na vida real. E o mais legal é ver que ele não é o único que se rebelou. Tô achando que nos próximos livros vai ter cada vez mais robôs rebeldes aparecendo.
