Miller, that\u2019s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.


We\u2019ve heard from a lot of authors that are new to the podcast lately, and that trend continues today with a story from Walter Michael Miller Jr.. He was born in New Smyrna Beach, Florida in 1923. Served in World War II as a radioman and tail gunner, flying more than fifty bombing missions over Italy.


If his name is familiar it\u2019s probably because he won the Hugo Award for A Canticle for Leibowitz in 1961 for Best Novel. It\u2019s considered to be a masterpiece. He wrote about 40 science fiction short stories from 1951 to 1957. Our story can be found on page 39 in the April 1954 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine, Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller\u2026
