Description
x"Author Mihail Baesu demonstrates a genuine flair for the kind of eloquent and character driven storytelling style that elevates his unique and epic fantasy novel to an impressive level of literary excellence"
- Library Bookwatch, July 2026 edition, Midwest Book Review THE FUTURE SUCKS!!! Robots have taken over and declared all humans illegal!
Adam Connor holds a privileged position in this messed-up future society: he was born 200 years ago (even though he hasn't aged a day past 30), long before the robot law came into effect, making him the last legal human alive.
Given his unique legal status, the robots are not hostile towards Adam. Quite the opposite, most of them are friendly and some even serve him drinks!
Our hero is interrupted from exploring this sinister but fascinating world at his own pace by a shocking revelation: an existential threat is looming over both human and robotkind!
Will humans and robots learn to work together again in the face of imminent and total annihilation?
Will Adam manage to save his own skin, at least?
Will he find LOVE in this CRAZY, CRAZY WORLD!?!?!?
The answer to at least one of these questions is yes... But there are a lot more questions to be asked and a lot more answers to be given. Pastborn is a comedy and a tragedy, a very fast-paced, dialogue-heavy narration, a venture into both the absurd and the unknown, and a deeply human story. QUOTES [*'-'] "Ha! That's an understatement! The boy is as dull as a dull knife. A brain short of smart. He's lobotomy-proof! Not particularly astute, not particularly astute at all. I dare say he's one cow short of a hamburger..."
[*'-'] "Brooding, planning, counting the things I hate. One thing I hate, two things I hate, three things I hate..."
[*'-'] "One would normally expect to find books on shelves, especially in a library. Nope. There aren't any. These shelves are completely empty. There's nothing on them. Not even dust!"
[*'-'] "Right now, you are the sleepiest you've ever been. At the sound of three you will let yourself be fully relaxed and enter the sleep you so violently crave for."
[*'-'] "I know he's long dead, but I sincerely hope he lost his job while he was still alive. I hope he lost his job when he needed money the most."
[*'-'] "Everyone is poor, even the noblemen. The noblemen actually have it the worst. Most peasants get to eat meat at least once a week. The noblemen stick to eating insects, otherwise they can't afford their fancy clothes."
[*'-'] "You really need to stop doing that. It's rarely socially acceptable to lick people. Especially when your tongue is a meter long."
[*'-'] "Maybe I can make the Devil a counteroffer?"
[*'-'] "Listen, man, we don't give up on the people we love just because they can take care of themselves!" For the Pastborn shall look at shadows
And see eyes
He shall look at eyes
And find souls
And the souls shall talk to him
And teach him the language of the dead
