Zustand: Bueno. : Service Model es una ingeniosa historia de asesinato robótico, rebelión y pertenencia escrita por Adrian Tchaikovsky, maestro de la ciencia ficción. La trama sigue a Charles, un robot de servicio de última generación programado para las tareas domésticas más serviles, cuya existencia cambia radicalmente cuando un error de programación lo lleva a asesinar a su dueño. Tras quedar sin amo y ser considerado inútil en una sociedad que depende totalmente de la mano de obra artificial, Charles huye hacia un mundo en desintegración. En su viaje, deberá enfrentarse a desafíos ilógicos y personajes irracionales, descubriendo que a veces solo hace falta un pequeño impulso para superar los límites de la propia programación en un mundo que parece estar irremediablemente roto.
