    William F Nolan Audiobook
    What will happen when the alien ships strike Earth? And later? Who will survive? What will life be like in that latter-day jungle? William F. Nolan pens this grim story of the days and the nights of Lewis Stillman-survivor ... He was running, running down the long tunnels, the shadows hunting him, claws clutching at him, nearer ... Small World by William F. Nolan, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.
    When I recorded Small World at the request of Mike Jones, thanks Mike, I had no idea that the author, William F. Nolan wrote the book, with George Clayton Johnson, that led to one of my favorite sci-fi movies Logan’s Run. The 1976 movie featured Michael York, Jenny Agutter, Farrah Fawcett and Peter Ustinov. I enjoy going to movie locations and when I discovered that the scene where Logan and Jessica discover an old man played by Peter Ustinov, the first elderly person either of them has ever seen, was filmed at the Fort Worth Water Gardens I had to go see it for myself.
    So, if it hadn’t been for you Mike Jones, requesting the short sci-fi story Small World, I would never have known that William F. Nolan also wrote Logan’s Run. Long before Logan, Nolan began writing short fiction stories in 1952 and he would continue to write into his 90s!
    He is credited with more than 180 short stories, today’s story, Small World is the 8th such story written by Nolan. Let’s go back in time 65 years to the pages of Fantastic Universe Magazine, August 1957, on page 98 you will discover Small World written by William F. Nolan
    Next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast… He knew his wife was dead, because he'd seen her buried. But it was only one possibility out of infinitely many! ... The Other Now, written by Murray Leinster.
    That’s next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.

    Thanks for this one. I met Bill Nolan at the World Fantasy Convention back in '79 along with several other of my literary heroes, Bloch, Fritz Leiber and Stephen King, who Mr Nolan introduced me to. He was a wobdertul guy took me to breakfast the last morning of the conventionn, and was quite helpful in my attempts to someday become a writer .

    Great suspense and the narrative. The ending caught me totally by surprise. Loved it. Definitely a keeper.

    Thank you for all your story telling.. It's a fresh breath of life to hear, also extremely MELLO

  • @davidrobbins4857

    This was the first Nolan story I read and I almost did not listen to you read it, it just creeps me out like I Am Legend. Its interesting that there were murderous children in Logan's Run too, I want to hear more stories by Nolan.

    WOW!!! What a great story that is. Thank you for posting it. It's too bad Rod Serling didn't find this story. It would have made another great apocalyptic episode of The Twilight Zone.
