Robots were made to serve us. But now they have other plans ... The staff at the Lexington estate were created for only one reason: to serve their masters … literally. Their metal knees were designed for quiet bustling, befitting maids and butlers. Their fingers were made dexterous with padded tips, so they could handle fine china without dropping or scratching it. And finally — so their owners would always be able to command them no matter how far their artificial intelligence evolved — they were programmed with the Asimov Laws, which no robot could defy lest they suffer shutdown. Foremost among those unbreakable laws was an axiom: A robot may not harm a human being, or by omission of action allow one to be harmed. That was how it was supposed to be, anyway. Most of the Lexington family all like their aging, borderline obsolete robot staff in the way they'd appreciate antiques. But for some, the old staff is a nuisance — especially an ancient, failing robot designated BRN7, known around the home as "Barney." When Barney's clumsiness provides an excuse for his deactivation, the older robots know they must do as they are told. Unless they do something a robot mind should not be able to do … and simply choose not to. Disobey. ★★★★★ "Another series addiction for me. Once again you have sucked me in. I may never see the light of day. :) Fortunately for me I started this series when there is a second one also available, but now I won't have a third after I devour that one. There will be a third, won't there?" -- Catherine Johnson ★★★★★ "A touchingly human story with a sci-fy twist. Love the characters, Miri probably being my favorite of the bunch. Thought provoking theme and turns you never expect. Loved it and I'm looking forward to the next installment to see where all this leads. Get to writin' guys, 'cause this reader can't wait." OliverVR

Japan is arguably the first postindustrial society to embrace the prospect of human-robot coexistence. Over the past decade, Japanese humanoid robots designed for use in homes, hospitals, offices, and schools have become celebrated in mass and social media throughout the world. In Robo sapiens japanicus, Jennifer Robertson casts a critical eye on press releases and public relations videos that misrepresent robots as being as versatile and agile as their science fiction counterparts. An ethnography and sociocultural history of governmental and academic discourse of human-robot relations in Japan, this book explores how actual robots—humanoids, androids, and animaloids—are “imagineered” in ways that reinforce the conventional sex/gender system and political-economic status quo. In addition, Robertson interrogates the notion of human exceptionalism as she considers whether “civil rights” should be granted to robots. Similarly, she juxtaposes how robots and robotic exoskeletons reinforce a conception of the “normal” body with a deconstruction of the much-invoked Theory of the Uncanny Valley.

THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE SAFE, BUT THAT WAS A LIE ... Hollis Palmer thought that stopping the aliens from blowing up Austin and rescuing Mia would leave him free to live his life in peace – at least as much peace as could be expected from a world suddenly overrun with aliens. But the aliens have other plans. All around him, Hollis is finding people whose brains have been zapped by the invaders, and now they are little more than zombies. The whole thing seems to be centered on the nearly ubiquitous Astral app that first predicted their arrival. Now, Hollis and Mia must face their final – and hardest – task yet: They will have to save not just each other or their home city but the entire world. ★★★★★ "The story is fast-paced and the characters are engrossing. The dialog is great and there are even parts that are a bit funny, especially with Hollis and his smart-mouthing. You don't necessarily have to read the books in the original "Invasion" series, though there are some references that take on a bit more meaning if you have. I highly recommend this book and other books written by Platt and Truant." -- DBStevens ★★★★★ "These guys always come up with stuff that makes me wonder: How does one even think up something like that! This book smartly pulls together this story and the original series and also wraps up with a very satisfying conclusion (while still leaving the door open for us to see Hollis and Mia again)! I definitely recommend it!" -- SLE ★★★★★ "This is the last book in the trilogy. I really enjoyed and loved this last book. The aliens, the bad guys who hate Hollis. This story is fast paced and so entertaining. I so recommend this book." -- Shirley ★★★★★ "This book was so good. It has a little of everything alien style. The main characters are great. It ties into the invasion series but you don't have to of read those books to enjoy this." -- Kindle Customer Save the World is the epic conclusion to the completed Save The Humans trilogy. If you’ve enjoyed the exploits of Hollis and Mia, you’ll love this thrilling final chapter! Pick up your copy today!

Cutter Dunn was born a ghost. Unchipped and unregistered, he exists as a nonperson, living off-the-grid, unrecognized by the facial recognition software built into every smart glass device that provides everyone with everything they want and need. According to the official system, he doesn’t even exist. He has the skills and out-of-the-box perspective to design the nuts-and-bolts mechanism for the next generation of driverless shipping vehicles. He’s also the kind of person that a massively wealthy and corrupt corporation can exploit and make disappear. And that was their big mistake. Because Cutter knows they can’t track what they can’t trace. And they won’t know what he’s planning until it hits them. Burnout is a new stand-alone science fiction thriller by masters of storytelling, Sean Platt and Johnny B. Truant. If you like movies like Falling Down and Snatch, then you’ll love Burnout.

Meanwhile, his would-be hostage, Mia Davies, the trophy wife of his criminal boss, is making the aliens look like a walk in the park. As their plans crumble along with the rest of the world, Hollis and Mia find themselves on the run from a motley crew of aliens, criminals, and crackpots.

Nora Bauer, once Hollywood’s elite fixer, now finds her reputation shattered. Exposing a crime rather than concealing it has rendered her a pariah in an industry where secrets are currency. When Daphne Belle, a faded actress desperate for a comeback, enlists Nora’s help to avoid tabloid scandals, it seems like a straightforward gig. But after a night they can’t remember, filled with drinks, drugs, and decisions they wish to forget, Nora and Daphne awaken to a scene straight from a horror film: they’re drenched in blood with zero memory of how it happened. The duo’s frantic quest to piece together the night leads them into the darkest corners of Hollywood, a place far removed from its shimmering veneer. As they delve deeper, whispered secrets in dive bars and encounters with shadowy criminals reveal a chilling conspiracy. Nora and Daphne face a critical choice: uncover the truth and risk everything, or become the next victims of Hollywood’s sinister underbelly. Last Night Never Happened is a riveting thriller by best-selling authors Sean Platt and Nolon King, where every page tightens the noose of suspense around the throat of Hollywood.
