The Magnificent" handler om ???"Helen O'Loy" handler om Dave, der køber en standardrobot og omprogrammerer den til hans billede af en perfekt hustru, Helen O'Loy. Hun bliver forelsket i ham og efter nogen tid bliver han også forelsket i hende og de lever lykkeligt sammen til han en dag dør. Dave's ven Phil har aldrig giftet sig, for der var jo kun een Helen O'Loy."The Day Is Done" handler om ???"The Coppersmith" handler om ???"Hereafter Inc." handler om ???"The Wings of Night" handler om ???"Into Thy Hands" handler om ???"And It Comes Out Here" handler om ???"The Monster" handler om ???"The Years Draw Nigh" handler om ???"Instinct" handler om ???"Superstition" handler om ???"For I Am a Jealous People!" handler om ???"Keepers of the House" handler om ???"Little Jimmy" handler om ???"The Seat of Judgment" handler om ???"Vengeance Is Mine" handler om ???"Lester del Rey: Author's Afterword" handler om de forskellige noveller, hvoraf flere egentlig stammer fra Campbell, som flittigt delte ud af sine ideer til andre. I efterskriften afslører forfatteren også at han bedst kan lide Helen O'Loy for det var den anden historie han solgte og dermed beviste den at han havde mere end en enkelt historie i sig. I det hele taget virker han som et beskedent menneske.
