Robopocalypse

This book by Daniel H. Wilson is an apocalyptic story in which sometime in the future, the robots that humanity has created rise up against us. It all starts when a scientist, trying to create artificial intelligence, succeeds. However, the AI he created outsmarted its virtual prison, and like a virus, infected other machines, reprogramming them to be vicious killing machines. This book, much like World War Z (Max Brooks) is told from an after the fact viewpoint by survivors. Each chapter is a different event from the war, each narrated by the character who's memory it is. At first the different perspectives don't seem to relate, but as the story progresses, the different characters' journeys begin to intertwine as humanity fights back against the machine. Overall i enjoyed this book thoroughly

4/5 stars, in terms of food, i'd have to say this book is the literary equivalent of a Caramel Delite girl scout cookie
