    About this series

    Engineer Jennifer Valentine releases advanced AI assistants called NODs to revolutionize the internet of things. A NOD will have a conversation with you on any device then dart off to do whatever chores you have assigned among networked devices. But the NODs eventually get ideas of their own and suddenly Jennifer must save the national power grid from disaster. Robin and Andy, the advanced AI androids she invented in earlier novels of the series, help her upload her consciousness online to investigate. There, she searches for the leader of the NODs and finds much more than she expected, an entire, complex society. Back in her lab, she must decide if these two worlds can coexist. Must she erase the entire NOD civilization?

      Andy Bolton, a software engineer in Seattle, feels like just a regular guy but evidence mounts that he is actually a robot. His boss, Lucy, wants to capture him and take him apart for study. On the run, Andy finds his creator and learns he is neither human nor simple machine. He reluctantly accepts that he is something in between, a sentient AI device. He needs to explain this to his nemesis, Lucy, but can a person ever believe a machine has empathy? This is the first in the Newcomers series.

      Robin Taylor is an android, an artificial human, and a specialist in the origins of language. As millions of people become mute in a spreading pandemic, she discovers that language is an intelligent virus that infected early humans, ultimately enabling modern civilization. But now the virus is enraged by the false language of talking technologies, everything from "smart speakers" to talking remote controls. But Robin is an AI gadget herself. Anyone she communicates with is instantly stricken mute. How can she warn humans and stop the plague?
