Robopocalypse
8 books in catalog
Exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and human survival, modern techno-thrillers often blur the boundary between cutting-edge science and speculative fiction. Author Daniel H. Wilson, drawing on his academic research in robotics, has written bestselling speculative novels that examine humanity's relationship with technology, beginning with his breakthrough novel Robopocalypse. As a Cherokee citizen with advanced engineering degrees, Wilson brings technical expertise and cultural perspectives to stories ranging from rogue artificial intelligence to alien first contact.
Born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1978, Wilson earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Tulsa before attending Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned Master's degrees in Machine Learning and Robotics alongside a PhD in Robotics. Before writing fiction full-time, he published over a dozen scientific papers, worked as a robotics engineer, and hosted the 2008 History Channel television series The Works. His publishing career began with humorous science guides such as How to Survive a Robot Uprising (2005) and the middle-grade book A Boy and His Bot (2011). His adult debut novel, Robopocalypse (2011), became a New York Times bestseller, leading to sequels such as Robogenesis and story collections like Guardian Angels and Other Monsters. Wilson lives in Portland, Oregon, and has written across media, including DC Comics' Earth 2: Society series and his 2025 novel Hole in the Sky, an alien first-contact story set on a Cherokee reservation.
Wilson's writing combines rigorous scientific research with fast-paced thriller structures. His background in artificial intelligence and robotics informs detailed portrayals of automated systems, cybernetic implants, and machine cognition, keeping complex technical concepts rooted in realistic engineering principles. Beyond technological threats, his work frequently examines human resilience, ethical dilemmas surrounding human enhancement, and Indigenous perspectives on technological and extra-terrestrial encounters. By blending hard science fiction with accessible storytelling, his prose explores how emerging technologies reshape society and personal identity.
