Isaac Asimov's Robot City

Isaac Asimov's Robot City is a series of novels written by various authors and loosely connected to Isaac Asimov's Robot Series. It takes place between "The Robots of Dawn" and "Robots and Empire". The novels were written in response to a writing challenge issued by Asimov to write a series involving the Three Laws of Robotics, which brought about a collaboration of several talented authors.

Robot City

The Robot City novels begin revolving around Derec, a man who has no memory of who he was. Derec journeys to Robot City, a city almost entirely composed of robots. There, Derec meets another mysterious person named Ariel and together the two disprove their role in a murder of an unknown human to the robots. Fleeing an increasingly dangerous Robot City, Derec and Ariel journey to Earth to find the city's creator, the insane Dr. Avery and learn their true identities. As the series goes on, Both Ariel and Derec are repeatedly asked to confront more questions as old ones are answered all of which, no matter how broad, always seem to connect with Robot City.
