For We Are Many

Bobiverse fans: a signed limited edition of all three books in a boxed set, signed by the author, is now available on Amazon. Look for The Bobiverse [Signed Limited Edition] on Amazon Bob Johansson didn't believe in an afterlife, so waking up after being killed in a car accident was a shock. To add to the surprise, he is now a sentient computer and the controlling intelligence for a Von Neumann probe. Bob and his copies have been spreading out from Earth for 40 years now, looking for habitable planets. But that's the only part of the plan that's still in one piece. A system-wide war has killed off 99.9% of the human race; nuclear winter is slowly making the Earth uninhabitable; a radical group wants to finish the job on the remnants of humanity; the Brazilian space probes are still out there, still trying to blow up the competition; And the Bobs have discovered a spacefaring species that sees all other life as food. Bob left Earth anticipating a life of exploration and blissful solitude. Instead he's become a sky god to a primitive native species, the only hope for getting humanity to a new home, and possibly the only thing that can prevent every living thing in the local sphere from ending up as dinner.

The second installment in Dennis E. Taylor's imaginative sci-fi saga follows an AI-powered interstellar explorer as he confronts alien threats, chaotic post-apocalyptic hurdles, and the ultimate challenge of saving humanity. Waking up after death wasn't on Bob Johansson's bucket list. But here he is, four decades later, inhabiting the mind of a sentient computer and piloting a self-replicating space probe. It was supposed to be a dream gig--explore the cosmos, find new worlds, repeat. Instead, everything has gone spectacularly off-script. Humanity is hanging by a thread after a devastating war wiped out 99.9 percent of the human race. The planet is spiraling into nuclear darkness, extremist groups are fighting over what scraps of civilization remain, and rogue Brazilian probes are doing their best to annihilate everything in their path. And the Bobs have encountered a terrifying alien species with one very straightforward view of other life forms: food. Bob never signed up to be a hero, and he certainly didn't expect to play God to a fledgling alien civilization. Now, he faces the ultimate question: Can a scattered army of digital copies, outnumbered and outgunned, outsmart extinction itself? Packed with snarky humor, jaw-dropping discoveries, and a heaping dose of heart, For We Are Many continues the wildly inventive saga that redefines what it means to be human...or at least post-human. The stakes are immense, but with Bob on the job, survival might just depend on thinking way outside the box.
