The Ware Tetralogy is a collection of the four Ware books by Rudy Rucker. From Rudy’s website:
It starts with Software, where rebel robots bring immortality to their human creator by eating his brain. Software won the first Philip K. Dick Award.
In Wetware, the robots decide to start building people —and people get strung out on an insane new drug called merge. This cyberpunk classic garnered a second Philip K. Dick award.
By Freeware, the robots have evolved into soft plastic slugs called moldies —and some human “cheeseballs” want to have sex with them. The action redoubles when aliens begin arriving in the form of cosmic rays.
And with Realware, the humans and robots reach a higher plateau.
It is available from his site in PDF and RTF, but I downloaded my copy from ManyBooks in the Kindle version. Other versions are available at ManyBooks as well.
