The Seventh Order
History is filled with invincible conquerors. This one from space was genuinely omnipotent, but that never keeps humanity from resisting!
The Salesman
SALESMAN'S GUIDE, RULE 2: The modern 1995 customer who enters Tracy's Department Store is not always right, but as far as you are concerned, he is.
The Real Hard Sell
Naturally human work was more creative, more inspiring, more important than robot drudgery. Naturally it was the most important task in all the world ... or was it?
Weak on Square Roots
Does your wife call you Pumpkinhead? Well, maybe it's not an insult; it might be a pet name. Ah-but whose pet name?
The Small World of M-75
For all his perfection and magnificence he was but a baby with a newfound freedom in a strange and baffling world...
B-12's Moon Glow
Among the metal-persons of Phobos, robot B-12 held a special niche. He might not have been stronger, larger, faster than some ... but he could be devious ... and more important, he was that junkyard planetoid's only moonshiner.
The Ultimate Experiment
No living soul breathed upon the earth. Only robots, carrying on the last great order.
There Will Be School Tomorrow
You will possibly shudder, but you will certainly remember for a long time this story of what happens when Tomorrow's gently implacable teachers are faced with a problem for which there seems to be only one solution...
Backlash
They were the perfect servants-they were willing to do everything for nothing. The obvious question is: How much is nothing?
This collection invites readers into imaginative worlds where robots reflect and challenge our understanding of humanity. Each story stands as a thought-provoking journey, blending science fiction with timeless philosophical questions. As a follow-up to the beloved Robot Tales, this volume continues to celebrate classic robot literature with charm, depth, and a touch of mystery.
