The Colour of Robots: A Novel

By James Marson and James Marson

Space adventure. It is a hundred years since the War with the Robots and the universe is a much safer place thanks to the Empire's 'Anti-Robot' directive outlawing anything with more artificial intelligence than that required to operate a dustpan. So it comes as something of a surprise to junior planetary engineer Karl Dougan when he discovers two fully-functioning, supposedly long-extinct robots on a remote planet. His plan of quietly ignoring this worrying event doesn't quite pan out as he expects, setting in motion an adventure involving space pirates, a pretty and determined journalist, a rogue battle computer, and seven very driven, acutely intelligent, robots...What Amazon readers are saying about THE COLOUR OF ROBOTS:"Loved this book.
