Description
In a world where automation runs society, Marion Sato spends her days as a judgment aid, tasked with making the manual choices deemed too difficult or complicated for computer algorithms. It seems like a dream come true – until things go horribly wrong.
When a freak accident leaves a young child in mortal danger, Marion knows she has to act fast to save his life. But the automated world surrounding her seems to stand in her way at every turn.
As time begins to run out and the weaknesses of a tech-reliant civilization become clear, will Marion be able to overcome the endless hurdles of a rigid autonomous society? Or will technology fail her as a child’s life hangs in the balance…
If you like suspenseful sci-fi which explores the faults of technology, then you won’t want to miss the fourth book in the Black Band Anthology series. Grab your copy now!

Sentient Judgement is a fast paced science fiction/ Black Mirror-ish novellette that basically deals with the ripple effect.
World building is this little gem is fabulous, the author having created an autonomated world, with customsizeable living modules, and food replicators straight from Star Trek, I can hear Picard say: 'Tea, hot, Earl Grey.' in the distance...
Sentient Judgement is a computer judgement programme that get digital input from the outdoor bots, since most that is occuring on the streets far down below can only be seen through camera view queries.
Mayhem occurs when an old man falls down, and another irregulariy is picked up.
This novellette ticked all the boxes for me; I was hooked from the start. Read in one afternoon, I was sorry to part with the story. Would have loved to have seen it go on much longer...
Thank you Netgalley for an ARC.
