This book is a science fiction mystery set in a futuristic
world filled with mutants and robots.  Its purpose is to
entertain.  The main character is a robot named Mack
Megaton.  He was created to be destructive, but he developed
free will, as did many other robots.  He is now a cab driver
attempting to earn his citizenship.  When his neighbors go
missing and he is attacked, he decides to get to the bottom
of it.  Along the way, he makes new friends and enemies.

Opinion: 

enjoyed this book and found the setting interesting. The
setting is far-fetched and comical which greatly adds to the
humor and uniqueness of the book.  The characters were all
likable even if they were not deeply moving.  The book moves
quickly and is a short but pleasant read.  I recommend it
specifically for someone looking for a funny,
science-fiction mystery, but anyone would probably enjoy
it.
