Description

The gun controls.

Inspector Frank Hallahan was a “shoot first, skip the questions” kind of cop. After a gunshot injury forces him from active duty, he is recruited to field test a computer-enhanced firearm:

A.I.M. - Artificial Intelligence Magnum.

The sapient device named APOLLO gives him the power to stop crime like never before, but only according to its rules of engagement, and he is assigned a tech specialist as partner, further obstructing his independence.

During a city-wide crime wave, the old-fashioned lawman wielding the state-of-the-art weapon with a mind of its own faces his greatest challenge against a homicidal machine adversary that has selected Hallahan for target practice.

This isn’t a long book (couple of hours to read), but I enjoyed it immensely. This is a Robo Cop type theme, with an AI controlled gun, and as usual when tech company CEOs make decisions about AI weapons then murder and mayhem are a certainty to follow. If that’s you sort of thing I think you will like this book as much as I did. Thank you to BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.

I was given a copy of this book to review.

Godel's writing is fast-paced and vivid, drawing readers into a futuristic and terrifying world. The characters are well-developed and complex, each adding a unique perspective to the story. The AI-powered gun is a fascinating character, and Godel does an excellent job of exploring the ethical implications of a weapon that can think and act for itself.

The action scenes are expertly crafted, with plenty of suspense and danger to keep readers engaged. Overall, "AI Magnum" is a thrilling and thought-provoking novel that fans of sci-fi and action will definitely want to check out.
