Daniel H. Wilson: Robopocalypse (2011, Doubleday) 3 stars

nope, this did not work for me: a) the story is stiched together from short micro-stories of different people, too short for me to develop any kind of connection; b) monologues presented as speech or letters sound unnatural, people don't talk like that, this kills the immersion; c) the detalization is insufficient at some places, excessive at others, in exactly the way that annoyed me the most; d) the robotic rebellion is… just too hollywood'ishly cliché and simplistic, devoid of life; not sure how to explain it.
