Description

After an untimely death, Bob Johansson awakens a century later as a digitally recreated consciousness with no legal rights and an extraordinary assignment: pilot an advanced probe into deep space to search for habitable worlds. Forced to choose between serving the state and being shut down, Bob must navigate political intrigue, rival expeditions, and the hazards of an unforgiving universe. As he explores the cosmos—and discovers unexpected possibilities for his own existence—he confronts questions of identity, autonomy, technological progress, and what it means to remain human. Witty, inventive, and fast-paced, this opening novel in the Bobiverse blends hard science fiction with humor and philosophical speculation.
