About this title

Synopsis

The thrilling and hilarious sequel to The Last Human takes readers to a world where robots and humans coexist . . . though the peace between them may not last long.

It’s been a few months since XR_935 met Emma, a human girl who wasn’t supposed to exist. Robots thought they’d eliminated all humans, but some have survived all these years. Robots and humans now live side by side, and the world is so much better for it. They’ve formed a new society, living together as equals.

Even if XR doesn’t always understand humans, it is impressed by their creativity and ingenuity––especially considering all the terrible things that robots did to humans all those years ago. But some humans are not so quick to forgive. A group known as the Machine Breakers has emerged. They won’t stop until they’ve destroyed every robot on earth―and any human who stands in their way.

Can XR and Emma stop them? Or could this be the end of the robots―and the world as they know it?

Includes fun black-and-white illustrations.

Film rights for Lee Bacon's thrilling middle grade novel The Last Human, the companion to Fall of the Robots, have been optioned by Sony Pictures, with Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Spider‑Man: Into the Spider‑Verse, Project Hail Mary) attached to develop.
