Rock em Sock em Robots?
Feel good family film that plays like a version of Rocky, in a future (of 2020!) where robot boxing has replaced the real thing, with Hugh Jackman portraying a down on his luck boxer who reconnects with his estranged 11 year old son over a summer period, following the demise of his ex.

All the main beats from Rocky are here: the rags to riches story, the romance/love story bit, the final boxing match against an opponent named after a Greek God...

(NB that's not to say this isn't enjoyable: it is!)

I'd been eyeing this book for a while when it continually moved about on my Amazon "recommended" screen. The cover is eye catching and the price was good, so why not?

I didn't read the synopsis before buying so I had no idea what it was going to be about but let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed with it. It had everything I like: lots of paranormal beings, a little sprinkle of romance, a fair bit of butt kicking and an interesting storyline. Sorted!

I will definitely be continuing the series in the near future!
