No Shield From the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson - The Golden Age of Science Fiction

No conceivable force could penetrate Terri's shield. Yet he was defenseless. No Shield from the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

We’re excited to welcome Gordon R. Dickson to our podcast for the first time today. Dickson was born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in 1923. After his father died, he and his mother moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1937. He served in the United States Army from 1943 to 1946. 

Gordon R. Dickson wrote more than 140 short stories and over 50 novels during his career. He was highly prolific, with his works spanning various subgenres of science fiction and fantasy, including his well-known “Childe Cycle” series. Over his career, he won multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards. Unfortunately for us most of his work is not in the public domain.

Let’s go back in time seventy one and a half years to the January 1953 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine, which also showcased Time Enough at Last by Lynn Venable, and turn to page 111, No Shield from the Dead by Gordon R. Dickson…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Something went wrong… and Ed Fletcher got mixed up in the biggest thing in his life. Adjustment Team by Philip K. Dick.
