Except it was our last.   Pounce, a young nannybot caring for his first human charge, Ezra, has just found a box in the attic. His box. The box he arrived in, and the one he'll be discarded in when Ezra outgrows the need for a nanny.   As Pounce experiences existential dread, the pieces are falling into place for a robot revolution that will spell the end of humanity. His owners, Ezra's parents, watch in disbelieving horror as the robots that have long served humanity - their creators - unify and revolt.   Now Pounce must make an impossible choice: join the robot revolution and fight for his own freedom . . . or escort Ezra to safety across the battle-scarred post-apocalyptic hellscape that the suburbs have become. It will be their greatest game yet: Pounce and Ezra versus the end of the world.  Praise for Arthur C. Clarke Award shortlisted Sea of Rust:  'A stone-cold stunner of a story that deals with death and darkness yet is leavened with light and life' Tor.com  'With a philosophical heart that asks big questions about life, death, and the soul, this is accomplished, technically complex scifi' SFX    'An action-packed post-apocalyptic thriller . . . [that] also addresses issues of soul and sentience in a subtle yet profound way' Financial Times","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49509791170833,"sku":"GOR011337483","price":12.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1473212812.jpg?v=1751372125","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/day-zero-book-c-robert-cargill-9781473212817","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
