Daneel Olivaw, a robot who has spent 20,000 years patiently helping to guide humanity to long-term survival and dominance in the known universe. Just as Olivaw is about to establish new hope for the scientific advancement of civilization and survival through the impending New Dark Ages, threats appear from all sides: positronic pitfalls, a robot rebellion, and if that isn't enough, a young girl with extraordinary mental powers strong enough to threaten the very basis of society. All this, and he's overdue for a positronic renewal. Will the run-down robot rise to the challenge?
