In 1970, Avon Books published a landmark anthology, “Science Fiction Hall of Fame,” featuring 16 classic short stories that represent landmark tales of the genre. The stories were voted on by the members of the new (at the time, in the late 1960s) organization Science Fiction Writers of America. In this series, I will be joined by a panel of guests to break down these stories and talk about the authors in the book.
In this episode, I am joined by two experts on the history of science fiction. Joachim Boaz is a Historian and Teacher who has been writing about vintage Science Fiction since 2010 and can be found at sciencefictionruminations.com. Greg Mollin is a writer and Bookseller and the longtime owner of the amazing Artifact Books in Encinitas California. Artifactrarebooks.com
