Encounter in the Dawn by Arthur C. Clark...

About this episode

A lot of glib fiction has been written about life on other planets, with space ships dropping down among alien races, zap guns decimating the enemy, while Our Hero goes after a Beautiful Princess. But Mr. Clarke takes the realistic approach. Encounter in the Dawn by Arthur C. Clarke, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.


Another 5 star review on Apple Podcasts. This time from Australia, Zapzoom FBC says, “Great. This is a great podcast. The narrator is a great reader. All stories are extremely good.” Thanks Zapzoom and thanks to all of you have who given us a 5 star rating and review this year from all over the world.


Arthur C. Clarke is back on the podcast today with a story of space travelers connecting with, well we don’t want to spoil it for you. From Amazing Stories Magazine in June and July 1953 our story can be found on page 4, Encounter in the Dawn by Arthur C. Clarke


Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, John Thurmon swore he'd be the first man on the moon. But he wasn't. He was only the first murderer. The First Man On The Moon by Alfred Coppel.
