944 Hidalgo

Two female androids in love, an immigrant with a secret, an alien doctor, an astronaut on a mining ship, a man with hands of fire, a young woman with X-ray eyes, a grief-stricken robot, a Venetian executioner, a woman with foresight in a tower, and a delivery driver with a cargo of children all come together to save the planet from destruction when an asteroid plummets toward Earth, threatening to kill everyone.

Roiling with themes of modern slavery and racism, as well as AI and the malaise of a modern world half asleep and blind to violence and destruction - not to mention a love affair, a father-son relationship, and android lesbian lovers - Jack Davies's thought-provoking, emotional storytelling is brought together in a shattering conclusion.
