In the not-too-distant future, robots are fighting for their equal rights. When a mysterious and deadly disease known as "Rust" threatens all artificial life, salvation lies in the unlikeliest of heroes-an obsolete construction worker known as HALE-19 and AMBER-7T, a caregiver.
Pursued by police and bounty hunters alike, HALE-19 must confront his sordid past and place his trust in his former unscrupulous allies to survive. But will they aid him in AMBER-7T's quest to save robot-kind? Or will they turn him in for the ultimate payday?

Volition is a book that has interesting ideas and some very fun characters where you can see the three main threads all slowly being woven together. It's got a lot going for it with the worldbuilding and setting and the characters themselves are definitely fun, making for a very enjoyable read where you want to see what's next with where it goes. But it's really beautifully illustrated with a great sense of style and design, especially for the variety of the machines here in how they present themselves to the world and what their situation is like. Anderson and Francia are really working on something interesting here that could go with a lot of expansion to be even more. Definitely worth a look for those that are interested in this type of material. Read Full Review
