Destroy All Robots

Destroy All Robots

The ultimate robot-combat game show. One remote tropical island. Eight teams. Two hundred and fifty concealed killer robots.

Fifteen year old inventor Toby Badernoch has noble plans for the $10,000,000 prize money - finding a cure for Matt, his terminally ill brother. But his robot is targeted by arch-rival Ray De Coza with lethal consequences. The sabotaged robot rampages, slaughtering the show’s presenter and forcing the TV crew to pull out, leaving the competitors and their super-aggressive robots stranded on the booby-trapped island. Mutual mistrust leads to violence and soon Toby and his best friend, Caitlin Steel are fighting for their lives…

An appealing mix of science-fiction, fantasy and adventure which never slowed its pace and had some fantastic twists. Great entertaining, escapist reading all around.”
