>>25297157
Answer please.

for the record every book is worse than the last, if you don't like this one don't even bother with the sequel
the shrike does the most killing in the soldier's story
>>
>>25297396
Is that in the first book? They're telling the stories by turns right?
>>
>>25297407
yep

>>25297436
Alright, you gave me some hope at least. I was craving to see the Shrike do some killing, so far he only looked hypothetical. I was wondering if he was real at all, lol.
>>
>>25297477
he's real, but there is no resolution on the book's central mystery of what the shrike actually is and whether he will be friend or foe to humanity in a predicted coming war between humans and robots. It was meant to be like the Canterbury Tales and just be a disparate set of stories without a conclusion to its narrative.

I enjoyed the soldier's story the most.

The whole thing turns out to be just AI BAD. Kinda prophetic.
