Adan just wants to stay at home with his smart-companion Elegy - phone, friend, confidante, sex toy. But when his mother flees to Europe and joins a cult, leaving him penniless, he has to enlist in the army. Sentient robots are invading America, but it seems Adan has a surprising ability to survive their attacks. He has a purpose, even if he doesn't know what it is.
And in the far future, war between a hivemind of AIs and the remnants of humanity is coming to its inevitable end. But one woman has developed a weapon which might change the course of the war. It's just a pity she's trapped in an inescapable prison on a hivemind ship.©2022 Adam Roberts (P)2022 Orion Publishing Group

Excellent style and word choice. More than just a surface story, this is the sort that’ll make you ask questions and consider.
The read has enough breadth to attract casual readers, while maintaining a depth of concept that’ll satisfy the hardcore SciFi nerds (like me).
Publishing has become such a simple process that contemporary authors are literally everywhere, and many of them are not very good. This one is an exception. While I wasn’t absolutely hooked, I did enjoy the story from beginning to end, and am encouraged to read more of the author.
A 7/10. Would recommend and will read again.
