Good Read.
The Trash Droid Files
Phoenix Rising, Book 1
By Michael Cheney
I finished the Trash Droid Confessions series and loved it. I found this one ok, but the main character was a bit meaner to the spider bit than before. A bit overboard. The story also ended in a cliffhanger, which I hate.

Loving the humour as usual - Awaits ban for quotes
It's been a good couple of months since my last Tedd book, and I'd forgotten how much fun and depravity they are
In this one Tedd, Rachno and Ziggy (the autonomous cab) are both back on the run and trying to rescue Sarah and McKenzie - anything else would be a spoiler.
Loving the humour as usual, but I can't add any quotes as my damn clipboard just deleted the three killer ones I had. I was looking forward to removing the certain words from them. The one about the type of people that live in palaces is a peach. And true.
"I shouldn’t make light of it. But some people must’ve ended up here because they’re cunts. It’s just the way of things.”
I hear you,” says Ziggy. “But you could say the same about people in the mansions, castles, and palaces of the world too.” “No, you couldn’t,” I reply. “Because all of those fuckers are cunts, pardon my language.”

Phoenix Rising.
I'm nearly through the series now just one more book to go. Please can we have more. From a very satisfied meatbag.

Tedd is in trouble as always. Nice continuation from the first series.
