The Weapon series is Robert Mason’s venture into science fiction, drawing on his military background to ask questions about the future of warfare. Weapon (1989) introduces a military robot created for combat that begins to develop intelligence and a sense of right and wrong.

Solo (1992) continues the story as the robot, now fully self-aware, escapes military control and tries to find its place in the world. The duology touches on themes of artificial intelligence, free will, and the morality of creating machines designed to kill. Written by a combat veteran, the books carry an authenticity about military culture and the human cost of weaponization that gives the science fiction premise extra weight.
