A scavenger automatic robot wanders in the wasteland created by the war that has ruined mankind in this evocative postapocalyptic "robot Western" from the critically acclaimed publisher, screenwriter, and mentioned film critic. It's been 30 years because the apocalypse and 15 years because the murder of the last human being at the hands of robots. Humankind is extinct. Every man, woman, and child has been liquidated by a global uprising devised by the machines humans designed and created to serve them. A lot of the world is managed by an OWI - One World Cleverness, the shared consciousness of an incredible number of robots published into one huge mainframe brain. But not all robots are prepared to cede their individuality - their personalities - for the sake of a greater, much better, higher ability. These intrepid resisters are outcasts, single machines wandering among various underground outposts, who have developed into an unruly civilization of rogue AIs in the wasteland that was once the world. Among these resisters is Brittle, a scavenger automatic robot looking to keep a deteriorating body and mind functional in a global that has lost all meaning. Although unable to experience emotions like a human being, Brittle is haunted by the horrible crimes the automatic robot people perpetrated on mankind. As Brittle roams the Sea of Rust, a sizable swath of place that was once the Midwest, the loner automatic robot slowly involves terms with horrifyingly raw and vivid thoughts - and almost unbearable guilt. Sea of Corrosion is both a harsh story of survival and an optimistic trip. A vividly dreamed portrayal of ultimate destruction and anxious tenacity, it boldly imagines a future in which no desire remains, yet where a humanlike AI strives to find goal among the list of ruins.
