À propos de cet audio

A thrilling adventure in a world one step away from total subjugation by machines

After long years of war, the United States has sued for peace, yielding to a brutal coalition of nations ruled by fascist machines. One-quarter of the country is under foreign occupation. Manhattan has been annexed by a weird robot monarchy, and in Tennessee a permanent peace is being delicately negotiated between the battered remnants of the US government and an envoy of implacable machines.

Canadian businessman Barry Simcoe arrives in occupied Chicago days before his hotel is attacked by a rogue war machine. In the aftermath, he meets a dedicated Russian medic with the occupying army and 19 Black Winter, a badly damaged robot. Together they stumble on a machine conspiracy to unleash a horrific plague - and learn that the fabled American resistance is not as extinct as everyone believes. Simcoe races against time to prevent the extermination of all life on the continent...and uncover a secret that America's machine conquerors are desperate to keep hidden.

I really enjoyed the concept of the story, however at times it felt like the main character just happened to stumble upon one too many too good to be true moments. Everything just fell into place with little to no effort for him. I also felt at times the author just rambled on and explained things for far longer than what was necessary. I had a few moments while listening when I said to myself just get on with it already.

That being said it was a good book and I would still recommend it to friends. And when the sequel comes out I will probably get it as well because I'm curious as to what happens next.

Overall pretty good.

... but the author can't make up realistic reasons for people to behave this or that way, and so every new personage is a deux au machina.

Could have been a good story...
