ROBOTA by Orson Scott Card - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK

The setting for this fully illustrated science fiction novel is Orpheus, a world that, millennia earlier, was the fourth planet in the solar system. Thousands of years before its destruction, a race of sentient robots ruled over all carbon-based life. All humans, hunter-beasts (large, gorillalike creatures), monkeys, and jodhpurs (massive dinosaurs) that refused to be domesticated were systematically hunted down and killed.

Enter Caps, a man with no memory, who -- along with a sentient monkey named Rend and a wise hunter-beast named Juome -- must somehow figure out a way to stop the robots from destroying all life on the planet. As Caps gets closer to Font Prime, the king of the robots, he begins to recall impossible memories that could put not only himself but also all life forms on Orpheus in jeopardy.
