| Summary | "The Model of a Judge" by William Morrison is a science fiction story written in the early 1950s. The narrative revolves around Ronar, a former predatory creature who has undergone psychological reforming to become a judge. The book explores themes of trust, identity, and the complexities of human relationships as Ronar, now a judge at a cake-baking contest, navigates the societal dynamics that arise from his non-human background and reformed nature. The plot follows Ronar as he judges a cake-making competition among humans. Despite his extraordinary sense of taste, which he uses to judge the cakes, he faces prejudice and fear from the human competitors and spectators who still view him as a former outlaw rather than a reformed being. Throughout the contest, Ronar wrestles with his old instincts and the biases of those around him. As he tastes the cakes and interacts with the humans, he reflects on his painful transformation and the challenges of acceptance. The story culminates in a moment of decision that leads to an unexpected winner, highlighting the themes of redemption, fairness, and the complexities of human nature.
