5 Stars
I chose this novel to review because it's post-apocalyptic science fiction, and because I liked the premise. Smart choice: I REALLY like it! Despite the fact that the protagonists are one human and one damaged household robot, trekking a post-apocalyptic wasteland (destroyed by robotic war against humans), METAL CHEST is a heartfelt and human story that frightens, warms, and excites, with lots of adventure and chills (not least of which are certain self-righteous humans who claim to be restoring civility and rule of law, and certain Simulated Intelligences who are every bit as elitist and disdainful as some humans). It's an adventurous and highly enjoyable read.
