In a fit of whimsy, I hereby announce I will give everyone five stars, but the reviews may not reflect it.

Ah, nothing like a good robot uprising to start the day. When household robots start murdering their owners, it takes a bunch of robots who like their owners to save the day. This is definitely an interesting premise but I found it lacking in execution. I'm not sure what the issue was - maybe the good droids were a little too cutesy for my liking. Still, it's been getting good reviews and some of it is good fun and clever, so don't write it off based on my amateur opinion. Plus, it's a quick read.
