Was the first book actually that good? I've met Max Harms in person and was definitely unimpressed.

Not op but I really enjoyed but then again I don't read that much. I mostly read studies, fanfiction or books found throught the rationalist communities.

If you're a /lit/-ard and devoured most of their recommended books you might find this not that good.

Making my own request since I can't find these anywhere:

The first third was really good. Then they left the facility and the story became about sympathizing with a bunch of terrorists that I couldn't give a shit about. Then it ended by overshadowing a fairly neat first-contact story by focusing on how the robot was transgender.

It had good ideas, but then did it's damnedest to make a mediocre book out of them.

I did like some of the concepts, and the box-breaking was inventive and plausible. However, it's typical STEM-major fiction, which means it isn't very well written, especially the dialogue/character interaction.

Also, you can literally hear the author masturbating over the lovingly-depicted robot sex scene as you struggle through it. I needed to shower afterwards.
