inkandtome 's review for:
We Are Legion
by Dennis E. Taylor
NERDY FUN AND VON NEUMANN PROBES NAMED BOB!
What an absolute blast.
I picked this up intending to just read a couple pages and decide if I wanted to add it to my TBR for the year, but wound up sucked in by the nerdy humor and sci-fi goodies.
Though there is action, this involved more exploration and situational danger for the protagonist (protagonists? it’s confusing, but not in a bad way) with little pockets of ‘space stuff go boom-boom!’
This is absolutely written as a love note to the genre as a whole, while the concept of the central protagonist and how he does what he does within the book was shiny and new to me.
If you love science fiction on the harder side - sans the Force, or hand-waving science with advanced alien technology - I fully recommend that you start this book as soon as possible!
