A novel that makes you think and laugh …Taylor does an amazing job at keeping the reader hooked through this political satire… Fay Gibb, Goodreads, BookBub

… a sparkling satire … a political comedy the reader can enjoy whatever their partisan affiliation. Cecelia Hopkins for Readers’ Favorite

… In Taylor’s futuristic world, the rich, as ever, enjoy every privilege and the poor struggle to make ends meet. The plots, conspiracies, and revelations are embedded in a culture and politics dramatically familiar to today’s socio-political climate. The pacing is smooth and plotting tight. Esmeralda’s quest rockets the plot along toward an unexpected yet satisfying conclusion. Taking a subtle yet savage swipe at current political climate, Taylor weaves in a political satire with much food for thought on environmental concerns, poverty, and war. Lighthearted and fun, the novel makes for a page-turning read.

The First Robot President’s dialogue, which composes much of the text, is riveting and realistic … Robert Carlyle Taylor’s skill in writing dialogue and exploring the ethics of having a robot as president make this novel an intriguing dive into pertinent topics. IndieReader

… an atmospheric and entertaining roller-coaster ride with high stakes. Plenty of twists and a satisfying finale make it an engrossing read. BookView Review
