Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books The Mad Scientist's Daughter

"Cat, this is Finn. He's going to be your tutor." Finn looks and acts human, though he has no desire to be. He was programmed to assist his owners, and performs his duties to perfection. A billion-dollar construct, his primary task is now to tutor Cat. As she grows into a beautiful young woman, Finn is her guardian, her constant companion...and more. But when the government grants rights to the ever-increasing robot population, however, Finn struggles to find his place in the world, and in Cat's heart.

Column Appertaining To Books The Mad Scientist's Daughter

It's a bit odd to shelve a book on my yearly fave shelf that I only rate 3 stars but... then, my feelings on this book are odd. I loved it, but it made me deeply uncomfortable, and 3 stars is really the only compromise I can make.The Mad Scientist's Daughter is an incredibly well-written work. I found myself repeatedly taken aback by how realistic it felt - almost less like a novel and more like a very poetic biography, meandering in the nonlinear way of a human life rather than following

3.5 starsI absolutely loved Cassandra Rose Clarkes debut novel The Assassins Curse, that when I saw a couple of friends mentioning The Mad Scientists Daughter I knew I had to request a copy. I know look at me branching out of my contemporary comfort zone. If someone told me this time last year that I would be reading more fantasy and sci-fi books I would have just given them a blank look. But Im glad to say The Mad Scientists Daughter is another book I extremely enjoyed.The concept of robots

What a beautiful yet heart-rending story. I've cried and cried over this with sadness, joy and heartbreak. This should be a compulsory read. I'm definitely getting the rest of her works.

4 of 5 stars at The BiblioSanctum: http://bibliosanctum.blogspot.com/201... The Mad Scientist's Daughter ended up giving me all sorts of contradictory and inconsistent feelings. Even though I loved this novel, there were still a ton of things that drove me nuts about it, and yet I can't help but suspect a lot of it was by design.First of all, while I enjoyed this book, I also have to say it was also one of the most depressing stories I've ever read. Even though the tagline is "A tale of love,

Looking back, I think I can acknowledge that The Mad Scientist's Daughter is more of a tragic love story than anything else. Although it's been marketed as sci-fi, focusing on robots and a dystopian future that seems eerily similar to something our own children may experience, at the core, it is all romance and not much else. Let me clarify - all dramatic and angst-ridden romance. Unfortunately, I didn't even feel much for this main romance since I was too preoccupied coming up with ways to

I would like to join the reviewers who state that the synopsis is misleading since it gives the impression that the novel is about Finn. It is not. The novel is about Cat, she is the centre from the first page and until the last one. In many ways this book is deeply philosophical. It concerns itself with artificial intelligence, with the definition of love, with consciousness, with those who make decisions guided by society's definitions of right and wrong instead of their own hearts and heads

"I realized, after you asked me if I thought you were pretty, that I needed to work with a different algorithm. Previously, I had only contemplated the concept of beauty in regards to works of art. But the definition of beauty in a human being is different than the definition of beauty in an object. This is a philosophical question, of course, and philosophy is difficult for me. It's too abstract. I sill have problems with abstraction." He paused. His eyes shook. "I considered facial shape and
