I, Robot by Isaac Asimov — book review
smokingpen | August 11, 2004
When I saw that they were going to make a movie out of ‘I, Robot’ a science fiction bit by Isaac Asimov, I had to go out and break my long time rule of not reading science fiction and buy this piece of science fiction. The first disappointment I had, when walking through the Layton, UT Barnes and Noble store was that they did not carry ANY copies of that book that weren’t printed with a cover showing Will Smith. I like Will Smith, I hate books that advertise movies. This almost stopped me from buying the book and ignoring the movie altogether – or at the very least, to walk into a used book store and purchase a nice old, in need of a new home, copy of the book rather than something that was a tie-in to a movie. Because of time constraints, I believe I was on my way out the door to go rafting down the lower Snake River outside of Jackson, WY, I grabbed ‘I, Robot’ and three other books and raced out the door.
