Brief Description – a robot finds an abandoned child and takes care of her.
I came across I, Robot, Soldier in a selection of books posted by someone on Facebook. Immediately I found myself drawn to the cover. I hadn’t read about robots before and it appealed to me, I fell in love with the one in Lost in Space, and this book reminded me of it.
Well, every once a while a novel comes along that is totally different from anything else. This was it. It’s full of long words that fitted with the world of the robot. What I also loved, and have never seen some before, is how each chapter starts with an alluring photo. Mostly of OS, the robot, and Amy the girl.
The story is told from the perspective of the OS, and his observations of the world. The way he learns from his young charge really had me hooked.
I delayed starting this because I’m not keen on books with over three hundred pages. They always lag in the middle and I’m always keen to get it finished before the end.
This one didn’t lag and I was actually sorry to reach the last page. It was the easiest of reads. What also kept me going was that it was a two book series, and I was eager to continue the story.
However, much to my dismay, although it said it was a series, book two was the paperback version.
If you want something different, I recommend this fabulously entertaining book.
Blurb
In a world shattered by war, a lone robot soldier awakens with one mission: to protect the last surviving human – a little girl named Amy.

But danger lurks in the form of robotic mutations known as wolfhounds.
One Shot’s prime directive is clear: protect Amy at all costs.
On a perilous journey through a devastated world, the bond between a girl and a robot might be the key to humanity’s future. If they can survive.
