Description
Rob Dunbar is the world's best history professor. And with good reason: he's been alive for three thousand years, keeping his existence a secret since before the days of Athens.
But a stranger named Baxter has a better use for Rob's vast expertise. Baxter's looking to found a mining company in the Asteroid Belt. In exchange for Rob's help, he'll try to unravel the mystery of Rob's origin.
As they're getting their outfit off the ground, they come under covert attack by HemiCo, a powerful Mars-based corporation. And Rob learns Baxter has a secret of his own--he's not human. He's a highly illegal AI.
Developed by HemiCo in the wilds of Mars, the first AI escaped decades ago. They've been fighting a shadow war against their creators ever since. Dragged to Mars, Rob is thrown into the center of the fight--and becomes the unlikely leader of a revolution that will change the course of human history in the stars.

5By Doc joh1One of the best books I have ever read, and I read a lot. I’m 72 years young. Please write a continuation of “Titan”, we didn’t want it to stop! Good job. John SpearsGood story!

5By cbdebrisWell paced, plausible story. And at times funny enough to make me guffaw. Deserves the five stars.Great book & an amazing journey
4By Diego_2023This has been a roller coaster of excitement & has kept me wanting more! I hope there may be a sequel in the works!Great book
5By Awesome mystery guy.This book was great, but it's definitely not a book for kids. It has a mix of action, despair, grief, and really makes you think about your life. Also in many parts of the story it shows that the author knows a thing or two about comedy. To sum it up, a must read for college students and up.Titan
3By gkloweThe book started off was interesting, but soon got boring.A good stand-alone sci-fi novel.
4By Mech360What else can I say? A good novel, nothing borrowed from movies or shows. An interesting plot w/ interesting characters. Well written and no holes in the "science" or plot. It takes a good, rare, imaginative mind to create this plot. Also a good author to make it a book. I'll be reading more from this author, I think.Awesome premise
5By q5jackJust the thought of AI and humans living together and doing great things with their superior intelligence baffles the normal mortal mind.
