Sea of Rust

I've got such a jumble in my head about this book and I can't really put it in any decent order. So I'm just going to wordvomit a little bit.

If the Mad Max, Terminator, Matrix movies, and Waterworld (without the water) had a baby it would be this.

I need this to be its own movie. Maybe a miniseries because there's a lot going on here.

Holy shit I love good robot scifi.

Why hasn't a Goodreads librarian changed the synopsis to show that Brittle thinks of herself as a female robot?

Would robots really care about gender once humans are extinct? Was it just programming and voiceboxes that had them holding onto gender? I know Cargill tried to explain this but I still think robots might have thrown off human genders. It's a social construct they have no need for. Humans are people but robots are persons so why not a distinct robot pronoun?

I wonder if there's going to be a sequel to this. It wasn't a cliffhanger but it was still pretty open ended. What happened to Brittle was cool. What happened to Mercer was not cool. If there's a sequel we'd better see him again.
