The Chosen Twelve
The Chosen Twelve | James Breakwell
1 post | 2 read | 3 to read
There are 22 candidates. There are 12 seats. The last interstellar colony ship is down to its final batch of humans after the robots in charge unhelpfully deleted the rest. But rebooting a species and training them for the arduous task of colonisation isn’t easy – especially when the planet below is filled with monsters, the humans are more interested in asking questions than learning, and the robots are all programmed to kill each other. But the fate of humanity rests on creating a new civilization on the planet below, and there are twelve seats on the lander. Will manipulation or loyalty save the day?

I really wasn't sure what to expect when starting this, but it turned out to be an entertaining read. It reminded me of Robot Wars, a British TV program where humans built robots which battled each other, only in this book they also battled the humans. Just imagine your robot floor cleaner gained intelligence & tried to kill you every chance it got! 4🌟

My thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Rebellion/Solaris, for the opportunity to read an ARC.
