Über diesen Titel
Can a gentle robot win the fight for humanity's last hope?
Before the Robot Uprising, Block the CleanerBot dutifully followed his programming as part of a hotel cleaning crew. Now in the aftermath of the AI Apocalypse that annihilated the world, he tries to simply do his job, avoiding the dangerous SoldierBots who wage war on the last human survivors.
But when Block discovers a human infant, his surprise attachment to the girl compels him to protect her while traveling across the metal infested wastelands of America to a safe haven. Without his help, the abandoned baby could die before they reach safety. When he encounters Nova - a surly soldier who becomes an unlikely ally - they must tackle the biggest challenge of their lives.
Together, they face mortal danger from bands of scavengers, militaristic SoldierBots, and Combat Mechs. A cyborg Bounty Hunter that will stop at nothing to find Block and the child - an infant who holds the key to humanity’s future.
If you enjoy robots with a heart like WALL-E plus the action-packed adventure of The Mandalorian, then you’ll love the first book of this thrilling post-apocalyptic sci-fi series.

Warm and cosy despite a dystopia going on
So, let's start this New Year 2023 thingy with a 5* review!
I bought Steel Guardian on recommendation from a friend, without even taking a look at what it was about. When I started it, I was expecting some sci-fi warfare, purely from the cover. Boy was I surprised to find something that's a bit like finding Baymax in a dystopian world! And oh how I loved it.
Robots have killed a lot of humans, and the world is broken, but not all are like that. No, there's also the harmless ones. Like our main character, who just wants to clean and do a good job. Which gets really hard when you suddenly find yourself in charge of a squalling tiny human infant.
I loved the contrast between trying to survive, and the slightly naive view. Wanting to trust everyone, but also fearing betrayal.
I'd it a perfect read? No, there is a few rough patches and the pace is a bit uneven at times. Did I enjoy the hell out of it? Absolutely! Can't wait to read more in this world!
A great way to start into 2023, and maybe greet out new AI overlords...

The narration was very good overall, but I was ripped out of the story by the strange pronunciation of the word Baby quite a few times, and at least ones the "robot" sounded like a rowbot... I didn't mind it overly much as I really loved how the characters came to life and everything, but thought it is wort mentioning
