The Wee Writing Lassie’s 300 Books in a Year – Book 300

The Bicentennial Man and Other Stories by Isaac Asimov

Goodreads Blurb: Andrew was one of Earth’s first house robot domestic servants—smoothly designed and functional. But when Andrew started to develop special talents which exceeded the confines of his allotted positronic pathways, he abandoned his domestic duties in favour of more intellectual pursuits. As time passed, Andrew acquired knowledge, feelings and ambitions way beyond anything ever experienced by any other mechanical men. And he found himself launched on to a career which would bring him fame fortune — and danger. For a robot who wants to be human must also be prepared to die…

In the Bicentennial Man, Isaac Asimov returns to his first and most enduring love — robotics. The result is a brilliant book of first-class entertainment and mind-spinning ideas which confirm Asimov’s supreme status as Grand Master of science fiction.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodreads Review: Of course the Bicentennial Man is the best story in this collection, better even than the film I’d say, but they’ve all got a sort of haunting magnetism that just makes you want to read on and never stop. Honestly, I’m kind of disappointed it’s over now 😢
