I chose to narrate today’s story because it’s unique and interesting and because I had never heard of the author Mike Curry. He wrote only two short stories in the 1950s and then disappeared for almost 4 decades. A Mike Curry is credited with two stories in the 1990s but we don’t know if it’s the same guy. We know nothing else about him.


His first story appeared on page page 94 of Thrilling Wonder Stories Magazine in August 1953. Metamorphosis by Mike Curry


Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, The Life of a child genius was no fun, but Roby couldn’t escape it–until a falling star taught him how to rebel! Referent by Ray Bradbury.
