REVIEW: 'The Mad Scientist's Daughter' - Cassandra Rose Clarke



The Mad Scientist's Daughter - Cassandra Rose Clarke
The Mad Scientist's Daughter

Synopsis

The Mad Scientist’s Daughter is the heartbreaking story of the journey from childhood to adulthood, with an intriguing science fictional twist.

There’s never been anyone - or anything - quite like Finn.

He looks, and acts human, though he has no desire to be. He was programmed to assist his owners, and performs his duties to perfection. A billion-dollar construct, his primary task is to tutor Cat.

When the government grants rights to the ever-increasing robot population, however, Finn struggles to find his place in the world.

My Review: 5/5*
