America, near-future. The booming international economy is the new cold war battlefield. Robots and androids do most of the world's labor. And a sinister conspiracy of alien robots is on the verge of taking over Earth's mechanical work force and conquering the world. Now hapless young executive Henry Fleming must make the world safe again for economic warfare. His only allies-an "oil-aholic" robot, an army of surgically mixed-up mutants, a wizard who can't keep his skin on, and the luscious droid who's the love of his life. His one chance—a race across America's nuked-out heartland to find a forgotten power that can save his planet, maybe redeem his career—and irrevocably alter the future of humans and mechanicals alike..
