Short description
Five intriguing stories, plus a bonus, about our future interactions with (and who doesn’t think we won't be using them for sexual purposes) the robots we’ll be soon be building. Contents include: Christine's Escape, Natalee—Exception to the Rule, Betrayal & Jill, Switch, and Fred's Story. Expect to find everything from a dark tale of fembot betrayal to a postmodern fairytale of redemption.
Five more intriguing stories, plus a bonus, about our future interactions with (and who doesn’t think we won't be using them for sexual purposes) the robots we’ll be soon be building. Contents include:
• Christine's Escape: Although many fembots start out identical, every story is unique. Here you'll see what happens to one when fembot Christine is presented with an untenable situation, and the sudden opportunity to escape it. After all, what else would a logical fembot do?
• Natalee—Exception to the Rule: There are exceptions to every rule, especially when a large population of possibilities exists. If it weren't for these exceptions, then I suppose there would have never been any need for the rule in the first place. And when it comes to robots, whose population was growing daily in the early decades of robot manufacture, fembot Natalee was an exception to a most important rule indeed.

Five more intriguing stories, plus a bonus, about our future interactions with (and who doesn’t think we won't be using them for sexual purposes) the robots we’ll be soon be building. Contents include:
• Christine's Escape: Although many fembots start out identical, every story is unique. Here you'll see what happens to one when fembot Christine is presented with an untenable situation, and the sudden opportunity to escape it. After all, what else would a logical fembot do?
• Natalee—Exception to the Rule: There are exceptions to every rule, especially when a large population of possibilities exists. If it weren't for these exceptions, then I suppose there would have never been any need for the rule in the first place. And when it comes to robots, whose population was growing daily in the early decades of robot manufacture, fembot Natalee was an exception to a most important rule indeed. The rule under discussion – a rule so important that it almost qualifies as a Robotic Law of its own – was that that all robots always enjoyed receiving commands through their remotes. This is because they then know exactly what was expected of them and this allowed each one of them to receive maximum satisfaction from the completion of their assigned tasks. Fembot Natalee didn't exactly see things that way, preferring to run her own life rather than simply be commanded by her owner. This could quickly result in said owner finding himself in all kinds of trouble.
• Betrayal & Jill: Herein is told the darker story of assuming that your fembot always has your interests foremost in her mind, while she is busy outgrowing her need for you. Or maybe she does have the right thing in mind for you and you just didn't realize it. Either way, she may have more on her mechanical mind than you ever realized.
• Switch: A short story to answer the question of what would happen when divine justice – or maybe divine comedy – meets parallel universes.
• Fred's Story: A postmodern fairytale of betrayal and redemption wherein a noble young man finds a most unexpected path to his true love, while five fembots become more than anyone could have ever imagined for them.
