journalism, investigation, conspiracy, robots, autonomy
Anders and his dad are mixed up in a conspiracy involving the Pleekas, a robotic body that human consciousness can be transferred into. But while the world thinks that is a good idea, Anders isn’t so sure. An exciting short novel designed for reluctant readers with a focus on autonomy. It’s ideal for junior high readers.
