Description

The fey Mr. Young continues his scholarly researches in the scientific origins of our myth and legend with this tale of an agile—and avaricious—one-man Boarding Party. Boarding Party by Robert F. Young, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.There are a lot of reasons we choose to narrate a story. Sometimes it has everything to do with the popularity of the author. Other times we’re looking to bring an author to the podcast that we’ve never shared before, such was the case recently with Evelyn E. Smith, Leigh Brackett and Andre Norton. And sometimes we narrate a story because one of our listeners requested it.But today you will hear a story because we think it’s fun. It’s as simple as that. Our fun story appeared in Amazing Stories Magazine in September 1963. You’ll find it on page 23, Boarding Party by Robert F. Young…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Who was it that lost out in the end? Pursued, or pursuer, on this hideous little rock in space. Final Victim by Ray Bradbury and Henry Hasse.Support the Show https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsVMerchandise https://lostscifi.creator-spring.com/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheLostSciFiPodcastTwitter https://twitter.com/lost_sci_fiSign up for our newsletterhttps://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/266431/102592606683269000/share Hosted on Acast.
