The Singularity Trap

Executive Summary: A slow start, but a strong finish. Not as fun as his Bobiverse books, but still pretty enjoyable. 3.5 Stars.

Audiobook: Ray Porter once again does a good job. Even though this isn't a Bobiverse book, it feels as though it could be, and that may partially be due to the same narrator returning. He does a few accents and generally is just the type of narrator that adds to the book.

Full Review
There were some similar themes and ideas in this book. Our protagonist is a Software Engineer for one thing. I feel like it could almost be a prequel for his Bobiverse books. However this book is really it's own thing.

I wasn't sucked in right away like his last books. I think it's because it really took awhile for things to get setup. Once the main plot finally got going (much later in the book than I'd have liked) it became a lot more enjoyable.

It's not as funny as his other book, but there is a sort of lightness to the book despite the high stakes of the plot that makes this one of those palate cleanser books when you need something after a particularly hard or heavy story.

So far I've enjoyed all of Mr. Taylor's books, and despite him not writing another Bob book, he's shown to me that he's likely going to be an author whose books I'll continue to enjoy.
