Isaac Asimov short stories bibliography

Published stories

Stories never anthologised

• "Question" had an ending which was similar to another author's 1952 story, and when this was pointed out to Asimov he promised never to publish it again, a promise he kept. By that time the story had already been reprinted in the April 30, 1957, issue of Science World.
• "The Portable Star" was Asimov's least favourite story, and was anthologised without his permission in a magazine, A Treasury of Great Science Fiction Stories no. 1.
• "A Woman's Heart" was never collected because of Asimov's disdain for it.
• "The Covenant" was a five-part round-robin story to which five different authors contributed. Asimov wrote the second part.
• "The Man Who Made the 21st Century"
• "Party by Satellite"
• "Strike!"
• "The Super Runner"
• "The Ten-Second Election"
