📚 Flybot

by Dennis E. Taylor

Physicist Philip Moray is having a good day. He’s chipping away at his big work project. The lunch in the cafeteria is at least edible. And he’s looking forward to his end-of-the-day drink and a soak in the hot tub.

Then, a strange device turns up in his office. A piece of technology he has never seen before–and shouldn’t even exist.

Suddenly, corpses start turning up, eco-activists go on the attack, random people suffer bizarre symptoms. And every time the authorities get a lead, it traces right back to Philip and his colleague, Celia Hunt.

Then, a mysterious caller contacts Philip–and, suddenly, staying out of jail is the very least of his problems.

Apparently, that hot tub’s going to have to wait.

I'm a big fan of Taylor's work but Flybot didn't really hit the mark for me as much as other books from Taylor have. I felt like the story lost its way in the middle; it came together okay in the end, where there was a interesting (but predictable) twist.

Not the best book I've ever read.
