About this listen

Robert Carlyle Taylor's award-winning debut novel

The First Robot President combines science fiction with political satire, making fun of Democrats and Republicans in equal measure. The novel centers around Thomas Jenkins, a lobbyist, and his robot wife whose political ambitions land her on the Green Party's 2520 Presidential ticket.

"[A]n entertaining science fiction satire made fascinating because of its behind-the-scenes looks at the bruising world of modern politics." (Foreword Clarion Reviews)

"[A] perfect combination of science fiction and politics." (Paige Loveitt for Reader Views)

"Taylor's easy-to-read prose may remind many readers of mainstream authors treading in unfamiliar SF territory.... In this enjoyable story, ultralogical but humane machine niceness prevails over two-party idiocy and scheming." (Kirkus Reviews)
