Dennis E. Taylor: We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (2016) 5 stars

A novel science fiction novel from the perspective of a post-human computer

5 stars

An interesting science fiction book about a self-replicating, post-human starship, that thinks it's one man called Bob, and has a nerdish obsession for the stars among other things. The book gets slighly technical at some points, but not overtly so, and the concepts are well explained. The story is, in my opinion, well paced, not over-descriptive (like explaining how a planet looks for two paragraphs) and fundamentally based around a completely digital intelligence, which makes the storytelling quite novel and interesting for me, because I really haven't seen that concept used anywhere else. If you like space-related science fiction books and want a different perspective on space exploration, I wholeheartedly recommend this read.
