About this listen

Mysterious tech, a devious AI and a couple of scientists in over their heads collide in the latest sci-fi adventure from the number one best-selling author of the Bobiverse series.

Physicist Philip Moray is having a good day. He’s chipping away at his big work project. The lunch in the cafeteria is at least edible. And he’s looking forward to his end-of-the-day drink and a soak in the hot tub.

Then, a strange device turns up in his office. A piece of technology he has never seen before–and shouldn’t even exist.

Suddenly, corpses start turning up, eco-activists go on the attack, random people suffer bizarre symptoms. And every time the authorities get a lead, it traces right back to Philip and his colleague, Celia Hunt.

Then, a mysterious caller contacts Philip–and, suddenly, staying out of jail is the very least of his problems.

Apparently, that hot tub’s going to have to wait.

Nerdy and doesn’t miss a point

I like the writer and reader already from their other books. This one is self contained but still manages to hit all the nerdy notes and doesn’t leave open plot holes. It’s better than an episode of Sherlock.

The ending blew me away!!

I just finished Flybot and I’m honestly blown away. The narration is superb, the book had me hooked from the start, but it was the ending that truly blew me away - clever and completely unexpected. Pure sci-fi perfection from start to jaw-dropping finish.

Captivating

As always, Mr. Dennis E. Taylor delivers. This book had me hooked from page one, couldn’t put it down. Smart, fast-paced, and a fully satisfying story from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Short, exciting, humorous

Dennis E Taylor did an excellent job exploring a potential AI outbreak in a way that was exciting and humorous. It’s a little short and moves quickly but is easy to follow along with since the story is so compelling. Glad to add it to my re-listen playlist in the future.

Dennis E Taylor does it again

This was a fantastic book! I really enjoyed Taylor's side step into detective work, whilst still staying true to his sci fi roots.
