The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast - Vintage Sci-Fi Short Stories

De: Scott Miller
  • Resumen

  • Step aboard our cosmic vessel and embark on a thrilling journey through the annals of science fiction history. Delve into the realms of imagination with us as we traverse the vast expanses of the solar system, encountering aliens, robots, and spacefaring brigands amidst the twinkling stars.


    Join us several times a week as we unearth timeless tales penned by the luminaries of vintage sci-fi literature. From the visionary minds of Philip K. Dick to the poetic prose of Ray Bradbury, from the boundless imagination of Isaac Asimov to the pioneering works of H. G. Wells, Arthur C. Clarke, Harlan Ellison, and countless others, we bring you short stories that have shaped the genre for generations.


    Prepare to journey back in time a hundred years, or more, to an era when these awe-inspiring narratives first graced the pages of pulp magazines and sci-fi anthologies. Yet, paradoxically, our destination often lies in the distant future, where the echoes of these literary marvels continue to resonate.


    Guiding us through this celestial voyage is our narrator, Scott Miller, who serves as your companion and guide as we traverse the cosmos, exploring the wonders of yesteryear and the possibilities of tomorrow. Join us as we navigate the depths of space and time, embarking on an adventure that transcends the boundaries of imagination.

  • The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell - The Curious Case of the Vanishing Body
    Apr 27 2025

    Long before superheroes, there was… The Crystal Man. A tale of a vanishing body and visible consequences. He was H.G. Wells before Wells. The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


    Today we introduce you to an author that some refer to as “the lost giant of American science fiction.” Perfect for The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast don’t ya think? He wrote about an invisible man, the story you are about to hear, before H.G. Wells The Invisible Man, wrote about a time-travel machine The Clock that Went Backward before Wells's The Time Machine and more.


    Why was he referred to as lost? Well, Edward Page Mitchell who was born in Maine in 1852 was an editorial and short story writer for The Sun, a daily newspaper in New York City. His stories appeared in the newspaper without a byline. So his work went mostly forgotten until a lot of investigative work by science fiction historian and fellow author Sam Moskowitz in the 1970s unearthed these groundbreaking stories.


    Originally published in The Sun on Sunday January 30th, 1881, The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell…


    Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, They worshiped him as a god, this man condemned to death on that lonely world, Master Of The Asteroid By Clark Ashton Smith.

Vintage Sci-Fi at its BEST!

An excellent collection of short stories from various writers long forgotten in many cases. Many of them I had never heard of, but they are now part of my listening collection. The narrator is top-notch and brings each story to life..Bravo Sir!
