Encounter in the Dawn by Arthur C. Clarke
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.
