Flybot – Dennis E. Taylor

Physicist Dr. Philip Moray is working on remote sensing technology for asteroid mining when he discovers a small artificial fly in his lab. This leads him and his colleague, physician Dr. Celia Hunt into a rabbit hole of sentient AI and terrorism.

The premise is mildly interesting. The execution is not. If not for Mr. Taylor’s knack for dialogue and sarcasm, I would not have finished this novel. The characters are straight out of central casting, and specifically American central casting at best. It reads like a low-budget made-for-TV thriller.
