Description

Shaan made the longest crawl in history—to avoid crawling before tyrants!... The Martian Shore written by Charles L. Fontenay... that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.Charles Louis Fontenay was born in Brazil in 1917, and raised in Tennessee from infancy, where he worked as a newspaperman for about half a century. He eventually became an editor for the Nashville Tennessean. In September 1954 Fontenay, the science fiction writer, was published for the first time in If Worlds of Science Fiction magazine with the short story, Disqualified. Seems he liked writing sci-fi and If Worlds of Science Fiction liked his work because he was back in the magazine a month later. Fontenay wrote a handful of novels and almost 40 short stories in the 1950s.We’ll find today’s story on page 78 in the April 1957 edition of Infinity Science Fiction magazine.The Martian Shore by Charles L. Fontenay. Next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Philip K. Dick is back. Earth maintained an important garrison on Asteroid Y-3.
