I, Gardener by Allen K. Lang

About this episode

A brilliant mind builds more than one legacy, but the most obedient creation can still reach a breaking point. In a quiet house above Boston, one witness must decide whether he is facing a mad servant, a failed machine, or something far worse. I, Gardener by Allen K. Lang. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

I could’ve sworn Allen K. Lang had been on the podcast before but I can’t seem to find him anywhere in our 585 episodes.

So let’s call this his debut, even if it isn’t! Allen Kim Lang was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in 1928. He wrote 1 novel and about 30 science fiction short stories.

Today’s tale can be found in Fantastic Science Fiction Stories in December 1959 on page 89, I, Gardener by Allen K. Lang…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A breakthrough meant to open the stars threatens to shatter the world before anyone understands what it can really do. One exhausted inventor must decide whether to bury his work—or prove it in front of the very people who want to control it. Passage to Anywhere by Sam Merwin Jr.
