On the far planet Wing IV, a brilliant scientist creates the humanoids - sleek black androids programmed to serve humanity. But are they perfect servants or perfect masters? Slowly the humanoids spread throughout the galaxy, threatening to stifle all human endeavor. Only a hidden group of rebels can stem the humanoid tide... if it's not already too late.
First published in Astounding Science Fiction during the magazine's heyday, The Humanoids--science fiction grand master Jack Williamson's finest novel--has endured for fifty years as a classic on the theme of natural versus artificial life.
Also included in this edition is the prelude novelette, "With Folded Hands," which was chosen for the Science Fiction Hall of Fame.
"Williamson's best novel, a classic dystopia and the single best work on robot[s]... outside of the work of Isaac Asimov."
- Twentieth Century Science Fiction Writers
Contents:
With Folded Hands (1947)
The Humanoids (1949) novel
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
