The Last Human by Lee Bacon

4.0

The humans destroyed the planet and the robots took it back. For thirty years robots have ruled the world once infested with humans. They are efficient, productive, and always follow the directives of the Pres1dent. XR-935 is the perfect robot. Everyday he boots up, says goodbye to his family_unit, and heads to the solar farm with his coworkers. However, when he comes upon a life_form he's never seen before, one he thought was extinct, the hive directives don't make sense. The human girl, Emma pleads with XR to help her get away from the bunker filled with disease and loss to another location that might save her. XR knows that humans are evil. He sees the nightly download from the Pres1dent of the pollution, war, and greed humanity seemed to love. Yet, Emma is different. She is kind, funny, and gentle. XR decides to go against his programming, with his co-workers Ceeron and SKD, and go on a dangerous journey to help save Emma. Along the way they learn about friendship, finding your true purpose, and that humanity was worth saving. For those readers who loved The Wild Robot, this book is a must read.
