We Are Legion

This book might be part of the Bobiverse, 1 series.

“Bob Johansson has just sold his software company and is looking forward to a life of leisure. There are places to go, books to read, and movies to watch. So it's a little unfair when he gets himself killed crossing the street.

Bob wakes up a century later to find that corpsicles have been declared to be without rights, and he is now the property of the state. He has been uploaded into computer hardware and is slated to be the controlling AI in an interstellar probe looking for habitable planets. The stakes are high: no less than the first claim to entire worlds. If he declines the honor, he'll be switched off, and they'll try again with someone else. If he accepts, he becomes a prime target. There are at least three other countries trying to get their own probes launched first, and they play dirty.

The safest place for Bob is in space, heading away from Earth at top speed. Or so he thinks. Because the universe is full of nasties, and trespassers make them mad - very mad.”—Goodreads

Hemera reviewed Ich bin viele by Dennis E. Taylor (Bobiverse, 1)

3.0 stars

Neben einem angenehmen Lesefluss zeugen optimistische Protagonisten in einer dystopischen Welt basierend auf einem soliden Konzept von guter Science Fiction. Die Ausgestaltung von gesellschaftlichen Konflikten oder biologischen Zwängen steht dabei weder im Fokus der Protagonisten noch des Werkes, wodurch abseits des Kernkonzeptes eine insgesamt oberflächliche Betrachtungsebene verbleibt. Das Ende klingt aus, verbleibt aber offen und bietet daher auch die Möglichkeit, dass diese Betrachtung sich in Fortsetzungen noch ausdifferenziert.

“We are legion” isn’t a good reference for your group of good guys. Writing was okay, but first person in this case was tiring. Made the book flat and low on action. If we are going to go as nerd-reference heavy as this book was, then I’d describe this book as mostly harmless.
