We Are Legion

As soon as I started reading this book the tone reminded me of “The Martian” and “Ready Player One”, which for me at least was a real positive. I found it just as easy and compelling to read. On the face of it it's quite a straightforward story but there's lots to think about if you scratch the surface and the pace the story doesn't give you time to get bored. I know there were some criticisms of The Martian that the protagonist was too emotionless and didn't break down enough given his situation and I can see the same accusation being levelled at the Bob character, but this is one of the main reasons I loved these characters as they have an impossible task to do and just get on with it! I really enjoyed this book and am going to go straight to number 2.
