Loved it. Great short story! Left me wanting so much more though! Hugh Howey we want more about the robot!

Thought provoking

Great short story, I only wish that it were a full novel. While the story left me wanting more, it was not done in a way that felt incomplete.
Great narration as well. I'm off to find more of Hugh Howey's work and I would definitely enjoy other stories performed by Gabra Zackman.

Left me wanting more!
