Hide and Seek by Arthur C. Clarke

It’s obvious that a fight between one man in a space suit and a full-fledged space cruiser is certainly “no contest.” True—but you’ve got the wrong slant! Hide and Seek by Arthur C. Clarke. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

Seventy-six years ago, back in 1949, you could fill your gas tank for just 26 cents a gallon and pick up a loaf of bread for only 14 cents. And for a quarter, you could grab the September issue of Astounding Science Fiction. Tucked inside its pages was a tale with a title that sounded more like a childhood game than a story of survival among the stars.

Flip to page 58 and you’ll find it—Hide and Seek by Arthur C. Clarke…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Old Dominie Vanderhoof was dead, but he did not rest in his grave, for evil was afoot in the old Dutch church. Two Black Bottles by H. P. Lovecraft.
