We Are Legion (We Are Bob) is ridiculously fun. If a nerd got three wishes from a genie, experiencing what happens in this book would be one of them.
Bob Johannson sells his software company for a mint and steps off a curb to start spending his money and is hit by a truck. Fortunately, his head is being preserved cryogenically.
Unfortunately, 117 years later, his brain was scanned into a computer and now he’s an AI controlled by a theocratic regime.
Fortunately, he is uploaded to a space probe with the ability to replicate himself.
Unfortunately, plenty of people want him dead.
The point of view shifts regularly, there isn’t a single storyline to follow, and while the ending is good, it’s clear you need to read the rest of the books in the trilogy (this is book one), but none of that matters. It’s a seriously fun ride.
Recommendation: Read it. Read it now!
