RobotWorld
2018
The year is 2075. Although it's against the law for robots to hold positions of power in the government and in large corporations, they have managed to do so largely because of the efforts of RobotWorld—one of the largest corporations on the planet. RW has created sentient robots that can totally pass for human. Taylor Morris, a human, has risen rapidly up the RobotWorld hierarchy and has earned a life of privilege. But he laments the fact that he's had to compromise many of his personal values. When he goes too far in questioning RW's negative effects on humanity to Sophia Ross, RobotWorld's brilliant leader, he's fired, then marked for death by the hidden government/RobotWorld complex. Taylor eventually becomes homeless and goes on the run. But with the help of Roz Troward, a loyal co-worker at RW who gets fired with him; Austin O'Connor, a wise old homeless philosopher, who may not be what he appears to be; and others, Taylor must match wits with the powerful government/RobotWorld complex to save himself, his associates, and maybe all of humanity.

RobotWorld
2020
The year is 2075. A relatively small percentage of the Earth’s population has survived World War III, which ended in 2035. Most of the former USA is now a vast, unpopulated wasteland except for the Northeast Sector, an area around the former Washington, DC. Although it’s against the law for robots to hold positions of power in the government and large companies in the Sector, they have managed to do so because of RobotWorld—one of the largest corporations on the planet. RW has created sentient robots that can totally pass for human. Bots appear to be taking over, as humans are overmatched. Taylor Morris, Roz Morris, and their small band of rebels blow up the gigantic RobotWorld building and go on the run while also working to change an oppressive political system. But can these underdogs overcome the powerful government/bot complex and the humans and bots behind it that holds all the cards—to save themselves and all of humanity? Author’s note: RobotWorld: No Final Victories is the second in a series, but it is also constructed as a standalone novel.
