Having read William, (also by Mason Coile), last year, and been suitably creeped out by it (robot doll on a tricycle, anyone?), I was hoping for more of the same with Exiles. Reader, I was not disappointed. 🤖
The year is 2030. Mission Commander Blake and his crew of two, engineer Kang and medic Gold, are en route to Mars. This is not an exploration, these three will be the first settlers on the colony.
Three bots have been sent ahead of them, to ready the base for human inhabitation. 🤖
You can take it as a given that all is not well on the red planet. There's a sinister threat at the base, but what exactly is the threat? Is it alien 👾, or is it a rogue bot? 🤖 Well, you're just going to have to read the book for yourself to find out, aren't you?
Well paced and twisty, Exiles is akin to a sci-fi locked room mystery. A very claustrophobic room, on Mars.
