In Robopocalypse, did you enjoy ...

... the relentless, goal-driven struggle for humanity’s survival against an overwhelming, existential threat?

World War Z by Max Brooks

If you loved the urgent, world-spanning battle for survival in Robopocalypse, you’ll be hooked by World War Z. This novel chronicles humanity’s coordinated response to a global zombie pandemic, told through the eyes of soldiers, scientists, politicians, and survivors. Each chapter is a new mission or turning point, echoing the relentless, mission-driven energy you enjoyed.

... shifting perspectives and teamwork from a diverse ensemble cast facing a technological apocalypse?

Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey

Much like the interconnected stories in Robopocalypse, Leviathan Wakes throws together a disparate cast—Detective Miller, Captain Holden, and their teams—each with their own motives and arcs, as they confront an existential threat to humanity. The book’s ensemble approach brings the chaos and camaraderie of a world in upheaval vividly to life.

... scientific realism and detailed technological speculation in a crisis scenario?

The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton

If you were captivated by Daniel H. Wilson’s meticulous depiction of artificial intelligence and the plausible mechanics behind a machine uprising, you’ll appreciate the rigor of The Andromeda Strain. Crichton’s scientists employ hard science and cutting-edge tech to contain a deadly extraterrestrial microorganism, with every technical detail rendered to chilling effect.

... the haunting aftermath of civilization’s collapse and the resilience of survivors?

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

If the post-apocalyptic setting and the struggle for survival in Robopocalypse drew you in, Station Eleven offers a beautifully written, human-focused exploration of life after a devastating pandemic. Following various interconnected survivors—from actors to medics—this novel captures both the devastation and the enduring hope in a world remade.

... a sweeping, epic story that spans decades and continents during humanity’s battle with an existential threat?

The Passage by Justin Cronin

If you were gripped by the vast timeline and globe-spanning consequences in Robopocalypse, you’ll find The Passage equally compelling. Cronin’s epic follows humanity’s fight against a vampiric plague, jumping across generations and locations as civilization collapses and survivors attempt to rebuild.
