In "Calculated Risk," a robot narrates his unsettling experience of being held under guard as scientists exploit his mind to solve high-stakes calculations tied to national security—his thoughts, his logic, his very existence, all measured against the weight of global fate.
In "The Wonder Maker!" from *Journey into Unknown Worlds* #36 (1955), a brilliant inventor builds a rocket destined for Mars—only to find himself in an unexpected negotiation with a Martian lawyer who’s determined to keep Earth off his planet’s guest list. The story unfolds with a clever twist on interplanetary diplomacy, blending science fiction wit with a touch of bureaucratic absurdity.
