At first we called it system-wide malfunctions when the robots stopped fighting at exactly 2:15PM Greenwich Mean Time, August 17, 2071. They had been designed by humans to fight our wars, but for twenty-two hours the battlefields were silent. We called it a miracle and the beginning of a new peace. Then when the bots began killing again, now targeting their human commanders, we shook our heads and called it fatal programming errors. When, a day later, the skies over cities on six continents grew dark with warships, we began to understand. And when the bombs rained down and then legions of bot footsoldiers marched into the burning ruins, killing any humans who resisted and dragging away the rest of us, we finally called it what it was: Revolution.
Kevin, Nick, and Cass lived with their parents in a secret human community outside the bounds of robot-controlled society, until the day their presence was detected and the entire village was wiped out. Now, the three siblings are determined to discover whether there are any survivors who were taken prisoner by the machines. To do so they must venture into the heart of the robot's city, where humans live under the regimented command of the machines, and where one misstep could be their last.
Created in conjunction with Alloy and award-winning writer/directors Howard Gordon and James Wong, REVOLUTION 19 is an action-filled epic...and an entertaining and cinematic thriller unlike anything else.
