A man without a memory named Derec and a mysterious woman now known as Ariel, are trapped on the confusing, surprising and sometimes deadly world of Robot City. Derec learns that Ariel is stricken with a disease that leads to fatal madness, and both are startled to learn that the robots' positronic consciousness has given rise to artistic expressions even as the city itself grows ever more deadly to all of its inhabitants.

Author

Arthur Byron Cover

Arthur Byron Cover (born 1950) is a science fiction author. Arthur Byron Cover's first novel, Autumn Angels, was the second of Harlan Ellison's Discovery Series of new authors for Pyramid Books, and was nominated for a Nebula Award. The novel has been described as "a stylistic cross-breed of Ellison and Vonnegut, and as such both predates and bests Douglas Adams in creating a comic, literary fantasy."
