Craved We Are Bob's snarky AI banter and tech-savvy problem-solving? Columbus Day by Craig Alanson delivers that same irreverent geek-fest energy.

If Bob's exponential empire-building and self-deprecating wit made you hungry for more tech-driven triumphs, Columbus Day hands you a human everyman and his god-tier AI partner outsmarting the galaxy one snarky quip at a time. The banter crackles with Star Trek references and geek-lore precision, wrapping philosophical AI sentience debates in laugh-out-loud irreverence. Instead of cloning consciousness, you get human-AI synergy bootstrapping survival—same intellectual power fantasy, fresh multiplayer dynamics minus the social friction.

Plausible alien engineering puzzles escalate into interstellar alliance chess matches, rewarding your inner physics nerd while poking fun at every space opera trope you secretly love. Zero romance, all competence—just brains, smirks, and exponential wins.

This is your next bingeable romp through existential chaos, armed with humor and nerd lore.
