I just finished Bobiverse series. It was such a fun ride. I won't say anything about it in fear of spoiling the ride, but I am going to start book one again. Oh and the last in the series in coming next year hopefully. Bobiverse first book = We are Bob, we are legion.
I read the first book earlier this year and thought it was a very fun adventure story, but I feel like it could be doing a lot more with its premise. Books like Children of Time or All Systems Red made me think about things like the nature of life and consciousness, and different ways to run a society. Would you say I should read the rest of the series, or does it continue to simply be fun?
For anyone who hasn't read it, I want to be clear that I'm not saying it's bad by any means. I fully recommend it to anyone capable of enjoying entertainment for its own sake, especially if you appreciate gen X nerd culture.
Interesting, I’ll check it out.
