I, robot
By Howard S. Smith

Let me preface this review by stating that I have not read the book by Isaac Asimov with the same title, nor have I see the movie starring Will Smith, but thanks to our modern pop culture I am well aware of the Three Laws of Robotics. I’m sure you’re wondering, so I’ll answer the question now: Yes, Howard S.

I'm glad to read your review of this - I requested it last week and while it hasn't arrived yet (not sure it will), I've been wondering about the wisdom of that choice! I haven't read the original I, Robot either, although I have seen the Will Smith movie.

Anyway, I'd love to exchange blog links! I'm actually medieval bookworm, this is my personal LJ, but I'm hopping over to put you in my blog list over there. =)

I really enjoy reading your reviews. They're very well-written. This is another ARC that's sitting on my TBR pile. I hope to get to it later this month.

Well there's no way it could go next to the other I, Robot- Smith wouldn't go next to Asimov! It sounds fascinating, the sort of thing that would be useful to discuss in lectures!

I'll ditto that -- although this one does sound quirky! :)
