Description

Five years ago, Mike Smith was an unhappy man living all alone. Then he purchased a Daffodil. Far more than regular robots, his Daffodil Patience, changed his life in ways that he had never thought possible. Now it is the year 2037, and Mike and Patience have been married for five years. Retired and enjoying life, Mike thought that all his troubles were behind him, but it seems as though they are creeping up again. California Proposition 22 proposes to define a person as a biological entity, thereby annulling marriages, like Mike’s and Patience’s, performed in other states. Battle lines have been drawn, at least as far as the proponents of the bill are concerned. Now Mike must muster his own support to defeat the measure. But there is more going on than just politics. Daffodil, the robot maker, is in the news again. Hardware issues are leaving robots across the globe unable to function. Is it only an antenna issue? Now Patience herself is behaving oddly. Is there something really wrong with her, or does she just need a software upgrade?

His Robot Wife is the novella-length sequel to His Robot Girlfriend.

    I was highly underwhelmed by this novella. I really enjoyed the first novella, but this one just fell flat in many places. The monotony of Mike and Patience's days was grueling. I didn't need to know everything he was eating. When things got somewhat interesting, the book ended! I don't know that I'll be reading the next books in the series.
  • Only books I'll reread!

    I've never been one to read books more than once, but with the His Robot Girlfriend books 1,2,and 3, I read them once or twice a year. Refreshingly different and funny. Two thumbs up!
  • Superb!

    I have read the previous reviews and simply said I have to agree that this book seemed a bit hurried. It didn't seem to have the same attraction as the "girlfriend" book had. But was very interesting to say the least. Regardless of this, I am looking forward to the next book and I am sure it will be a hit.😎
  • Great!

    I read the previous book and couldn't put it down. This book was pretty mediocre. It also seem to end very abruptly with the entire story and plot suddenly wrapped up like a present. At least it was only $0.99.

    Loved the first and I enjoyed this one too, but I do agree that the ending did seem rushed. Overall, I enjoyed the read!

    So glad I found this book, my only problem is they're to short. I sincerely hope this isn't the last one either, I really want to see what happens next & I really hope something bad happens to Jack.

    It nice to see the positive interaction between humans & robots. Too many times I've seen more negative then good. Once I started I could not stop very good reading.
  • Simply amazing.

    I finished up on His Robot Girlfriend and immediately purchased this book and read all of it within the next two hours. It was such a great follow up to the first book and it left me really hoping for another book.

    Great sequel to His Robot Girlfriend. I downloaded the first book just out of curiosity and loved it. Keeps me wanting to know more about what happens with Mike and Patience. Good buy for .99!
