    About this audiobook

    In a single night, Isaak's life changed forever. His adoptive parents were killed, a mysterious girl saved him from a team of soldiers, and he learned of his own dark and destructive origin-an origin he doesn't want to believe, but one he cannot deny.



    Isaak is a Robot: a government-made synthetic human, produced as a weapon and now hunted, marked for termination.



    He and the Robots can only find asylum with the Underground-a secret network of Robots and humans working together to ensure a coexistent future.



    To be protected by the Underground, Isaak will have to make it there first. But with a deadly military force tasked to find him at any cost, his odds are less than favorable.



    Now Isaak must decide whether to hold on to his humanity and face possible death . . . or to embrace his true nature in order to survive, at the risk of becoming the weapon he was made to be.

      This book was a bit of a hot mess. There was minimal world building, not a lot of character development, and just a lot of action-y plot.

      I think I might have enjoyed this more if we had gotten a consistent second POV instead of random POV every other chapter from people who we had to vaguely connect the dots to. I would have enjoyed a second timeline with the POV of the creator of the robots or something like that. I found that Isaak had no depth and none of the secondary characters did either - they were very cliche and I didn't really like it. The lack of world building really bothered me. We were sent from event to event with minimal explanation and ridiculous stuff happening. Even the "romance" felt contrived.

      Overall, I didn't really care about the characters or the situations they were in. There events that occurred felt more for shock value than to actually develop the characters or move the story along.
