As-written, this reads more like a promotional piece than an encyclopedia article: Man creates the ultimate machine... COLOSSUS, and it assumes responsibility for the defence of the free world... but the Russians have developed a near relative, the GUARDIAN... both possessed of unforeseen and frightening side effects... the machines prove capable of free thought... and threats. 66.17.118.195 20:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

That's because it is promotional. It's the wording on the back cover of the book. Needs someone who remembers the story well enough to write a plot summary. Winnow 23:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
