In the near-distant the future, humanity has discovered how to create near-perfect robotic replicas of human bodies, and how to transplant human brains into them, replacing flesh and bone with synthetic skin and steel. The process of making these steel bodies and putting human brains in them became automated—and affordable—miraculously quickly. Medicine became obsolete. Why fix a broken, decaying, aging human body when you can replace it with one infinitely customizable and nearly indestructible?
Billions made the switch.
And then they went insane.
And started eating the humans still clad in flesh.
Thus began the rozie annihilation and the fall of mankind.
Humanity’s last hope are the technomancers; rare individuals who, through a genetic peculiarity, are able to manipulate technology with their minds. They couldn’t stop the apocalypse. But they might be able to stop extinction.
Well. If it weren’t for the dark technomancers, that is.
Robot Cannibal Apocalypse is planned to be a trilogy that primarily follows 64Bit, a broken technomancer whose home ends up in the warpath of the most powerful dark technomancer of them all. His actions may be humanity’s final judgement.
Book 1: The Failed Technomancer
There’s no room for failure in the robot apocalypse, not if you don’t want to get eaten.
With the world destroyed by insane, man-eating robots, only technomancers stand between humanity and utter annihilation.
Unfortunately, 64Bit might be the one technomancer who can’t command robots with his mind. As an acolyte, he has managed to hide his shame until an army of hungry robots came marching right toward his home settlement. Hopelessly unprepared, beyond the point that revealing his secret would do any good, 64Bit gambles everything on the slim chance that he might be able to wake his master from a coma before everyone is devoured.
The Failed Technomancer is Boo Ludlow’s debut novel, a dark science fantasy novel with horror elements.

Hey… What stopped the apocalypse?
The Failed Technomancer was Boo Ludlow’s debut novel. He poured his heart and soul into it, he learned a lot as an indie author, and the final result speaks for itself. However, the story isn’t finished yet.
So where is The Betrayed Technomancer?
The short answer: Boo has more ideas than he has time to write. And the robot apocalypse, while important, is only one story he wants to tell.
Don’t worry. The apocalypse isn’t over. 64Bit’s story won’t end with that massive cliffhanger. But, until Boo has a few more novels out, gains a little more experience, and starts to figure out how to starting build indie writing into a career, it’s going to take some time to see it through. Please be patient and we will get there!
