Review: Robopocalypse


Robopocalypse
Robopocalypse by Daniel H. Wilson

My rating: 2 of 5 stars



I lemmed "How to Survive" because I wasn't really fond of his writing style. I read it all the way through, but it didn't spur me on to new thoughts, or introduce new concepts. Felt very World War Z, and I was ready to throw my tablet across the room at the "boy gets girl" at the end, despite spending zero time on character development or ...well. Yeah, I read it, now I'll forget it.

Under the Skin


It took a bit before I started to get it. But it was interesting enough to make me look into the source material, and now I'm reading the novel upon which it is based.

Any feeling of oddness or tedium you may get initially, is quite purposeful. It's not a movie for everyone. But I considered it a worthwhile experiment.
