Praise for How to Survive a Robot Uprising:

“Hilariously deadpan.”—New York Times

“[A] spectacular debut…Wilson’s often laugh-out-loud mix of irony, sarcasm and dry humor is perfectly complemented by almost two dozen illustrations by Richard Horne.”—Boston Herald

“Splits the difference between reality and farce…juxtaposing [advancements in robotics] with droll… lifesaving remedies.”—BookPage
