The Misplaced Battleship by Harry Harrison

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

It might seem a little careless to lose track of something as big as a battleship... but interstellar space is on a different scale of magnitude. But a misplaced battleship—in the wrong hands!—can be most dangerous. “The Misplaced Battleship by Harry Harrison”, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode. Last week more people listened to more episodes of the podcast than ever before. So, to say thank you you’ll hear three more episodes again this week. A few days ago we met James Bolivar diGriz for the first time here on the podcast. The story you’re about to hear picks up where “The Stainless Steel Rat” left off. After a life of crime diGriz is now one of the good guys tasked with catching criminals instead of being one. From the pages of Astounding Science Fiction Magazine in April 1960, turn to page 71 for The Misplaced Battleship by Harry Harrison… In two days on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, the method by which one man might be pinpointed in the vastness of all Eternity was the problem tackled by the versatile Frank Belknap Long in this story. And as all minds of great perceptiveness know, it would be a simple, human quality he'd find most effective even in solving Time-Space. “The Man From Time by Frank Belknap Long”. That’s in two days on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
