Book Description:
Nine stories of robots on the run, mechanical messiahs, galactic baby-sitters, Freudian aliens, calico cosmic critters, and immortality on the installment plan.
He is an ancient robot on the lam--a messiah hunted by the men he must save.
Henderson James is a duplicate man dreaming of immortality--but his creators foresaw his dream and built in a nightmare.
A planet where creatures in every hue of the rainbow die without giving it a second thought.
Their gift to mankind is a gentle ear and all they ask is to banish sorrow forever.
Every child is perfect--studious, well-mannered, and possessed of an alien calm.
In All the Traps of Earth, Clifford D. Simak presents a fantastic universe where man is a seasoned wanderer of space, where the creatures of the galazy view Earth as a second home, and where every traveler of the cosmos must beware not only of the traps of an unknown earth, but also the deadly snares of the universal dream--ambition.
