Descrição do livro
A cosy, heartwarming found-family sci-fi novel about obsolete robots, a haunted seaside hotel, and the people who decide they're worth keeping. On Friday, they're being scrapped. On Friday night, they walk out. Hob is a nervous, meticulous care-home steward with a rota for everything and a plan for nothing. Ferris is a night companion with a lantern for a head, who has sat with two hundred and fourteen people through their last hours. Quimby is a medicine-dispensing cabinet with twenty-four drawers and a growing, unscientific habit of keeping buttons. Goldie is a professional cheerer-upper with a painted smile. Barrow is the size of a wardrobe and gentler than the tide. Cricket is nine years old, wheeled, and absolutely certain she is not a toy. They are obsolete, unwanted and listed for recycling. So they slip away in the dark and cross a tidal causeway to Gull Head, a crumbling Victorian spa hotel on a Cornish island that has been empty for years, where the sea comes in twice a day and the signal that could recall them cannot reach. What they find is a place to hide. What they build is something none of them was programmed for. Then the village of Wyndlecombe finds them. So does a clever, tired Recovery Officer with a crowbar and a conscience. And so does a pearl-white machine who has never once been allowed to remember yesterday. THE DECOMMISSIONED is for readers who love: No grimdark. No killer AI. Just a household of misfits, a rising tide, and the slow, funny, stubborn business of becoming a family.
