On Ron’s Amazing Stories we have a special story from the pages of Galaxy Magazine. Have you ever wondered what time travel could be like? Do you have visions of visiting the past to see events play out in real time? But, what if you had to go to the past and attempt to change a mistake to save the future? That is the dilemma that Mac Albin is faced with in the story Of All Possible Worlds written by William Tenn. This is a thought provoking story that should have you thinking, “What If?”

Also, on the program we will review an Audible Original Podcast called The Safe Man. It comes from New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly, and is a riveting detective story, nail-biting heist thriller and a supernatural mystery all rolled into one. One of the best productions I have encountered.

Featured Story – Of All Possible Worlds

Our featured story has to be one of the most probable outcomes on time travel I have ever heard. Time travel provides writers with mounds of possibilities to contrast with their own daily grind. The very concept of time is one of the strangest and most mind-boggling because time relates to all things. The story comes from the pulp fiction Galaxy Magazine September issue of 1956. It explores a future with too many possibilities. It is titled Of All Possible Worlds and was written by William Tenn.

Stories Include – The Broken Window, Review – The Safe Man, and Of All Possible Worlds
