There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

The epic and highly anticipated conclusion to the listener-favorite series that had countless Audible listeners (and employees) hooked from the very first Bob - featuring, as always, a flawless performance from the inimitable Ray Porter. Being a sentient spaceship really should be more fun. But after spreading out through space for almost a century, Bob and his clones just can't stay out of trouble. They've created enough colonies so humanity shouldn't go extinct.

Jack Kernigan is having a bad day...a bad year...a bad life. After being booted out of MIT, he’s back in his Ohio hometown, working for the family business, facing a life of mediocrity. Then one day, out on a delivery, his truck hits...something. Something big...something furry...something invisible. And, it turns out, something not of this Earth. Fate can play funny tricks. Which is why Jack suddenly finds himself the planet’s best hope to unravel a conspiracy of galactic proportions that could spell the end of the human race.

Ser una nave espacial inteligente debería de ser más divertido, sin embargo, después de dispersarse por el espacio durante casi un siglo, Bob y sus clones simplemente no pueden evitar meterse en problemas. Los Bobs han creado suficientes colonias para que la humanidad no se extinga, pero las disputas políticas tienen el mal hábito de persistir a pesar de todo; y las sondas brasileñas aún siguen intentando acabar con la competencia. No conforme, los Bobs han elegido pelear contra una especie más antigua y más poderosa, con un apetito voraz y muy poca paciencia.

Heute ist nicht gerade Jack Kernigans bester Tag. Erst ist er vom MIT geflogen und muss jetzt diesen langweiligen Lieferjob in Ohio machen. Und dann hat er gerade eben jemanden überfahren, oder... etwas. Denn das, was da leblos am Straßenrand liegt, ist weder Mensch noch Tier. Ein Alien, ernsthaft? Kurz darauf entdeckt Jack mit seinen Freunden auch noch das Raumschiff – und als sie einsteigen, beginnt für Jack das verrückteste, kosmischste Abenteuer seines Lebens.
