Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller - Short Sci Fi Story From the 1950s
No one knows the heart of a rebel until his own search for the reason of right or wrong is made. Lieutenant Laskell found the answer to his own personal rebellion deep beneath a turbulent Atlantic, and somehow, when the time came, his decision wasn't too difficult… Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
We’ve heard from a lot of authors that are new to the podcast lately, and that trend continues today with a story from Walter Michael Miller Jr.. He was born in New Smyrna Beach, Florida in 1923. Served in World War II as a radioman and tail gunner, flying more than fifty bombing missions over Italy.
If his name is familiar it’s probably because he won the Hugo Award for A Canticle for Leibowitz in 1961 for Best Novel. It’s considered to be a masterpiece. He wrote about 40 science fiction short stories from 1951 to 1957. Our story can be found on page 39 in the April 1954 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine, Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller…
Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, The powers of earth had finally exterminated the last of the horrible tribes of mutant freaks spawned by atomic war. Menace to homo sapien supremacy was about ended—but not quite. For out of the countryside came a great golden, godlike youth whose extraordinary mutant powers, combining the world's oldest and newest methods of survival, promised a new and superior type of mankind… The Golden Man by Philip K. Dick.
