The Last Human Summary

The Last Human by Lee Bacon

An unlikely friendship. A dangerous voyage. A story about what it means to be human. Humans went extinct thirty years ago. Now the world is ruled by machines. And twelve-year-old robot XR_935 is just fine with that. Without humans around, there is no war, no pollution, no crime. Every member of society has a purpose. Everything runs smoothly and efficiently. Until the day XR discovers something impossible. Until the day XR discovers a twelve-year-old human.

The Last Human Reviews

The Last Human is a page turning, action packed adventure set in a world dominated by technology. XR_935 and Emma's adventure leads them into contact with HunterBots, RetrievalBots and EnforcementBots, a showdown with the President and revelations that will change their whole society. It is also a story of friendship and acceptance, a story in which the robots must overcome prejudice in order to help a scared, but not at all evil, human. * Story Snug *
Intelligent, witty and thought-provoking all at the same time, this is a superb slice of scifi for middle graders. * Read it, Daddy *
Bacon blends humour, adventure, themes of prejudice, friendship and acceptance, and moments of heartfelt emotion in a clever, compelling story that explores the complexity of being human through the objective eye of a robot. -- Pam Norfolk * Chorley Guardian *
A great addition to any school library * English Association *
