We are Legion - Book Review

We are Legion - by Dennis E. Taylor is a SF novel on brain uploads and interstellar travel.

On We are Legion, Bob Johansson gets killed - but awakes a century later after being uploaded to a computer. And now his only option to stay alive is to be the base of Von Neumann probe to another star.

I'm not sure why, but I really liked this. It has the regular hand-waving on the tech side (new propulsion tech, 3D printers to manufacture anything, not sure exactly how the materials are getting refined), but the (few) battles are nice and mostly seem to make sense.

I also like where the plot is going. Space exploration, VR,  colonizing planets, meeting new intelligent life, and saving the Earth.

Overall, strongly recommended. I already started reading the sequel.
