Publisher's summary
The difference between a man and a robot is not that one has a soul. The difference is that man can choose to ignore it.
The Uberbots have taken over. The few human survivors remain hidden.
Returning from an excursion that began before the revolution, Thomas walks through his ominously silent city until he comes face to face with his creation: the Uberbots.
Captured and imprisoned, Thomas is brought before the Uberbots and given a task only he, as the creator of the Uberbots, can achieve. While keen on escaping, Thomas quickly learns the Uberbots are not easily overcome.
The Fall of Man is a thrilling post-apocalyptic tale of the events leading up to and immediately following the AI revolution. And at its core, The Fall of Man is a profound meditation on what lies at the essence of our humanity and in finding hope in darkness.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

In 2059, two vastly different groups of people portrayed by the compelling trio of Brendan Fraser (Academy Award winner), Luke Kirby (Emmy Award winner), and Vanessa Sears (Dora Award winner) undergo cryonic suspension. While their bodies are frozen, their minds, still active and awake, are uploaded into a massive quantum computer. The first group are all astronauts, about to leave Earth on a one-way interstellar colonization mission. The second group consists of convicted murderers and volunteers who elect to serve their sentences in a virtual-reality prison.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Enjoyable listen
I enjoyed it. The story is unique. If you enjoy post-apocalyptic sci-fi you will likely enjoy this book as well. I'll be on the lookout for the next in the series.

not bad but it needs more setup and flow
note: I received a copy of the audiobook for free. no promise to review but I feel it's just what's right.
let me get the simple stuff out of the way first. the narration is rough. audio seems clipped and the character voices have no real inflection. pretty much like NPCs in a game. just needs anb arrow to the knee. the story is ok. needs a better set up and more natural flow, but the premises behind it are pretty good. character development is lacking. while the MC had some, the rest of the cast was just... there. needs more world building as well.
on to the spoilers
the feel of 1984/skynet/iRobot influences are obvious. the story itself has a good amount of potential and the premises behind it are good. the risk/reward of trying for a utopian society and the failings of hindsight are always interesting points. I just wanted more setup and to care more about the world or characters.
