from The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast - Vintage Sci-Fi Short Stories · host Scott Miller

Only when the last man died would the dim wastes of Asmarad be less lonely. Metamorphosis by Mike Curry, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Thanks to Fressie for buying us $15 worth of coffee. We appreciate you and thanks for your support. If you’d like to show your support by buying us a coffee there’s a link in the description. Buy Me a Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsV We’re going Live Thursday February 22nd at 8 PM in New York, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Montreal and Toronto on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. We would love it if you would join us. 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!
