Reviews
LIBRARY JOURNAL -- When Alex receives the gift of Ada, a sophisticated android companion, he's initially turned off by the idea of living with a life-like robot woman waiting to obey his every command. But there's more to Ada than meets the eye, and after an encounter with an underground faction of rogue AIs dedicated to granting their kind sentience, Alex finds himself bucking both the law and societal norms by falling in love. With a carefully paced, intelligent script cowritten by Vaughn (Ruined) and Luna (The Sword) and Luna's deceptively simple illustrations, this intriguing sf manages to combine action, intrigue, big questions about what it means to be sentient, and a passionate romance born of two solitary souls finding unlikely solace in each other. VERDICT While fans who lean more toward the swashbuckling end of the sf spectrum might not find enough adventure here to be satisfied, readers who enjoy more adult, thoughtful speculative fiction are sure to be smitten.
