Martians were weak, sensitive, a dying race, frail and impotent before the superiority of master Earthmen. Only in the sly and mentally skillful game of Duchal might sons of the red planet emerge gloriously from their shells. Alien Equivalent by Richard R.

The author of today’s story Richard R. Smith is making his debut on our podcast. Like many, he is one of those vintage sci-fi authors we know very little about. He wrote about 25 short stories, almost all of them from 1954 to 1958 and he used a few pseudonyms. He wrote erotic novels using the name Ann Taylor.
