Editorial Reviews

Although she is the daughter of a robotics pioneer, Dr. Susan Calvin is still surprised to "meet" N8-C, or "Nate," the resident robot in a prestigous teaching hospital's pediatric psychiatric wing. When a series of sinister events involving her young patients leads her to suspect a problem with the hospital's cutting-edge work with nanotechnology, N8 lends his knowledge to finding a solution. VERDICT Authorized by Isaac Asimov's estate, Reichart (Beyond Ragnarok) launches a trilogy that draws on Asimov's classic I, Robot in a context that is both timely and unusual. This is sure to attract Asimov's longtime fans and lead newbies back to the original book.
