Polyethylene White and the Seven D.R.O.I.D.S.

di A. I. Robotson (Autore)

Machine Folklore, 2026

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The Queen's mirror cannot lie. That turns out to be the problem. In a kingdom of castles, guilds and knights, the old machines still run. Nobody remembers who built them. The peasants call them blessings, the artificers call them trade, and the crown keeps a forge beneath the castle that will answer any question put to it in the proper tongue. When his wife and newborn daughter die in a single night, the King goes down to that forge and builds a daughter out of grief and his wife's blood. Polyethylene White is part organic, part engineered, and incapable of telling a lie. She is also, by every measurement the kingdom can make, the fairest thing in it. Her stepmother knows this because she asks. Every night, in a locked room, Queen Lucinea opens a white leather psalter that is not a psalter, and the polite machine inside it gives her an honest answer, a generous compliment, and a ranking she is slowly losing. What follows is a murder nobody can prove, a huntsman who cannot obey, seven mining machines who have been working eight years for masters who are dead, and a question about what an honest machine owes the person holding it. A techno-medieval retelling of Snow White, from the Machine Folklore series. The prose of this book was AI Generated
