The Pyrotechnics of Lester del Rey

SF's most protean personality--writer, editor, critic, publisher--sets off an incomparable fireworks display in these tales of robots and humans, animals and aliens, ghosts and gods, science and the supernatural . . .

HELEN O'LOY
If you want an ideal mate, build her!

HEREAFTER, INC.
This is Heaven? The hell it is!

LITTLE JIMMY
The invisible kid was a ghost for sure. But whose?

INSTINCT
The robots labored to re-create the extinct human species--
but there was one element they somehow left out.

FOR I AM A JEALOUS PEOPLE
"In God We Trust" is a great motto--until you find you can't.

And much more!
