Beskrivning
To 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.

Absolutely amazing book. The main character (a robot) is the best part. I love the way we see his programming and comments on all things happening around them. The book has very interesting and different things happening, showing a lot about the world. The book also has some really funny bits and I really liked some of the twists. I also really liked the short story to see more of the world from a different perspective.
