I absolutely adored this book  We have Victor the only human on earth in a world of androids androbots.   Vic has his father, Geo.  Vic salvages two robots, a sociopathic but can-engage empathy protocol, Nurse Ratchaed, and an anxiously ridden vacuum named Rambo.  I was laughing at loud at this crew who then found HAP, Histerically Angrey Puppet.  An android with a past- to kill all humans.  But this Hap doesn't want to he cares for VIc.  And then they are discovered in their hidden forest and Geo sets out to be decommissioned or reprogrammed and Vic and his friends have to save him.

It truly is an amazing book that I enjoyed listening to and couldn't wait to get through more.  While slow in the beginning it builds an interesting world.
