M.C Sloane is a new science fiction writer to whom this blog is dedicated to. Her latest title The Garden Spider Robot, takes place in the not too distant future, where Spider Robots are used to fix things that are too small of a problem for the owners to do themselves. Then one day the Spider Robots take manners into their own hands. Due to advancements in their programming they are able to fix problems not just in their backyard but everywhere else. People try to shut them down but can’t and people begin to panic, but really all the Spider Robots are doing is fixing everything.
I enjoyed the story because I could relate with my computer. I’m constantly just clicking yes to my updates ( iTunes, anti-virus, web browser, ect) most the time I don’t even read them but once I notice that something on my computer has changed without my permission then I’m worried that something might have gone wrong, that something might have been deleted without me knowing. Most time I trust that whatever my computer is doing it is for the best but sometimes I feel betrayed when it acts on its own.
