What traits would prove that Jerry is, indeed, a man. The Awakening: In the middle of a ferocious firefight outside of Baghdad, US soldiers discover a mysterious body - one that they can't even identify as human. Swiftly, all over the earth, more such creatures appear and begin to communicate. With this contact, the world is forced to choose between peace and destruction. Little Brother: In a future world where courtrooms exist without human judges or juries, automated justice is the law of the land. Sitting before a kiosk which is itself the judge, jury and executioner of the future, Frendon must find a way to convince the machine of his innocence - or find some other way to save himself before time runs out. Watchbird: It seems the perfect solution to a ballooning crime rate - filling the skies with flying robotic droids that can prevent murder before it takes place. However, nobody told these Watchbirds that all life depends on a formula of carefully balanced killing. Robert Sheckley's renowned story examines one of the most important questions of out time - is it wise to sacrifice our liberty in the name of our security. The Discarded: The ultimate story of despised minorities forever adrift in the darkness of outer space. As a last resort - born out of their loneliness and despair - they are forced to make an ominous pact with those responsible for their plight, in the hope that they will finally be offered refuge at home on Earth.
