Saturn's Children (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780441017317)

Sometime in the twenty-third century, humanity went extinct, leaving only androids behind to fulfill humanity's dreams. And, having learned well from their long-dead masters, they've established a hierarchical society--one with humanoid aristo rulers at the top and slave-chipped workers at the bottom, performing the lowly tasks all androids were originally created to do.

Designed as a concubine for a species that hasn't existed for two hundred years, femmebot Freya Nakamichi-47--one of the last of her kind still functioning--accepts a job from a stranger to deliver a package from mercury to Mars. Unfortunately, she's just made herself a moving target for some very powerful, very determined humanoids desperate to retrieve the package's contents...
