Uvula Audio presents: Spacehounds of IPC by E.E. “Doc” Smith

SFFaudio Online Audio

Uvula AudioDr. James J. Campanella, he of Uvula Audio and the recently completed The Man Of Bronze audiobook fame, will be beginning a new novel of interest to fans of pulp space opera and E.E. “Doc” Smith. Spacehounds of IPC – A Tale Of The Inter-Planetary Corporation begins podcast on Friday, July 11th 2008. Jim sez of it:

“I’ve started this new story with a short introduction and the first chapter. Since this is the ‘adult’ podcast, there will be no cutesy sound-effects– although lord knows it is hard to read, or listen, straight to something like that from 1931 without a bit of an eye roll.”

Personally I’m always happy when the SFX are left out of an unabridged reading – and though Smith’s style hasn’t really held up what he lacks in modernity he makes up for in rarin’ enthusiasm and accelerating ideas. I’ll be listening!

LibriVox Science Fiction: The Highest Treason by Randall Garrett

SFFaudio Online Audio

Here’s the cover story from the January 1961 issue of Analog Science Fact & Fiction magazine. The tagline for it is:

“The highest treason of all is not so easy to define—and be it noted carefully that the true traitor in this case was not singular, but very plural . . .”

8 Zipped MP3s or podcast – 2.5 Hours [UNABRIDGED]
Publisher: LibriVox.org
Published: June 2008
Set in a future in which humanity’s dream of total equality is fully realized and poverty in terms of material wealth has been eliminated, humanity has straight-jacketed itself into the only social system which could make this possible. Class differentiation is entirely horizontal rather than vertical and no matter what one’s chosen field, all advancement is based solely on seniority rather than ability. What is an intelligent and ambitious man to do when enslaved by a culture that forbids him from utilizing his God-given talents? If he’s a military officer in time of war, he might just decide to switch sides. If said officer is a true believer in the principles that enslave him and every bit as loyal as he is ambitious, that’s tantamount to breaking a universal law of physics, but Colonel Sebastian MacMaine has what it takes to meet the challenge.

Time Traveler reads for Scatterpod: Dark

SFFaudio Online Audio

{Podcast / Scatterpod}

Michael Bekemeyer of Scatterpod has started a new themed series for the show called Scatterpod: Dark.  As you can imagine these tales concentrate on the darker side of human nature.  Some of the shows are non-fantasy horror stories, but they often have a fantasy element.

The third and most recent installation features a Science Fiction story called Ice Planet written by Michael.  The story is read by none other than myself, The Time Traveler.  Although I host my own show, but with the exception of one short flash fiction, this is my first tour of duty as a narrator.  When Michael sent me the story, I couldn’t refuse.  It was reminiscent of the kind of stories that appeared in the pulp magazines like Planet Stories (with some added expletives).
