Description
The new novel from the author of William
'A propulsive gasp of a novel' - Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
'I couldn't put it down until the last twisting page' - Simone St. James, author of Murder Road
2030. The human crew sent to prepare the first colony on Mars arrives to find the new base half-destroyed and the three robots sent ahead to set it up in disarray.
In the four years since they arrived, the machines have formed alliances, chosen their own names and picked up some disturbing beliefs. Each robot must be interrogated. But one of them is missing.
As the astronauts close in on the truth, it dawns on them that in this barren, hostile landscape—where even the machines have nightmares—none of them is safe.
Exiles is a taut and terrifying one-sitting read from the critically acclaimed author of William.
