Book description
You ever wish your favorite sci-fi had the comedic timing of your funniest friend? Dennis E. Taylor's We Are Legion (We Are Bob) delivers that exact magic, and Ray Porter's audiobook performance makes it pure, unadulterated joy. Bob Johansson's life? A total mess. He sells his startup, plans to splurge on a fancy car, and then-poof-gets hit by a bus. Waking up 117 years later, he's not in a hospital, but inside a sentient space probe, with a knack for cloning himself and a mission to save humanity. The setup is genius, but Porter owns it. His Bob is hilariously self-aware, sarcastic, and utterly relatable-whether he's debating the ethics of space colonization or complaining about "corpsicles" (cryo-preserved heads, naturally). Porter's voice crackles with energy, making the absurdity feel real and the science feel accessible. You'll be laughing through space battles and debating AI ethics with Bob while actually feeling the thrill of interstellar travel. It's no wonder this was Audible's Best Sci-Fi of 2016-it's the perfect blend of brainy, heartwarming, and laugh-out-loud funny. One million copies sold for a reason: this audiobook doesn't just tell a story, it invites you into the fun. You won't just hear it; you'll feel like you're right there, cloning yourself for the greater good (and the memes). A must-listen that makes you wish more sci-fi had this much heart and humor.
