| book description |

We enjoyed our Robots and AI book so much that we’ve followed up by splitting these topics in two, particularly because in the world of Generative AI, Robots and Artificial Intelligence are moving rapidly in new directions. This new Robots anthology delves into the fascinating evolution of robots – from the mechanical marvels of the past to the imaginative possibilities of the future. Whether exploring the nostalgia of retro robotics, envisioning futuristic automatons, or unique stories that bridge the two, this exciting collection brings together classic fiction of robots from the past and combines them with new stories by modern authors. New, contemporary and notable writers featured are: Charlotte Brookins, Victoria Brun, Deborah L. Davitt, Calvin Demmer, Tianna Ebnet, Joshua James Jordan, Abigail Kemske, Simone King, Akis Linardos, Brian K. Lowe, Lorian Moore, Soumya Sundar Mukherjee, Lee Murray, Mariah Southworth, M.C. St. John, Nathanael K. Stottlemyer, Brian Trent, Anne Wilkins, Marissa Yarrow, and Ramez Yoakeim. These appear alongside classic work by Eando Binder, Ray Bradbury, Thea von Harbou, C.L. Moore and many others. The Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories and Epic Tales collections bring together the entire range of myth, folklore and modern short fiction. Highlighting the roots of suspense, supernatural, science fiction and mystery stories the books in Flame Tree Collections series are beautifully presented, perfect as a gift and offer a lifetime of reading pleasure.
