'Reminiscent of The Martian and World War Z' PIERCE BROWN A
twenty-story-tall metallic figure appears in the middle of Regent's
Park. The caretakers at London Zoo notice it first at around 4am.
The figure, or robot, bears a great resemblance to the UN robot
known as Themis . . . Who made Themis? It's been ten years since
Themis - a giant alien metal robot - was revealed to the world by
Dr Rose Franklin. It now stands at the heart of the Earth Defense
Corps - in case the makers of Themis return to claim it. Why did
they leave it here? Rose and her team are still seeking answers to
Themis's origins when a second and even bigger robot appears in
London's Regent's Park. A military response backfires, reducing
half the city to bare earth. And what if they come back? As more
robots appear across the world, Rose knows it's a race against time
to discover where they've come from, what they want and - most
importantly - how to stop them . . . 'Captivating' BUZZFEED 'A
sheer blast from start to finish. I haven't had this much fun
reading in ages' BLAKE CROUCH 'Non-stop action and adventure. In a
word: unputdownable' KIRKUS
