Very good, and intriguing to read a book from the perspective of a machine. I do wish that some of hte magical realism innate in having the machines have consciousness and some undescribed way to communicate was better fleshed out. I also coudl wish for a more momentous ending. But it's still very compelling and an enjoyable read that keeps you interested the whole time.
