On Ron’s Amazing Stories we review an amazing Antman audiobook from Marvel Comics. Two things make this a great listen. The story and the narrator. Next up we have two ghost tales from Ross (A screaming ghost and The Blue Boy). We end the show today with a science fiction story read for us by Ben. It comes from the 1940’s pulp mags and it is an amazing story about a pirate asteroid and the marooned patrol officers sent to take down their leader. All you have to do now is press that play button and enjoy the show. Featured Story - The Monster Maker Our featured story comes from the pulp magazines. I was sent an email by Ben Tucker, who lives in Santa Monica, CA.  He wrote that he had a story that he would like to read. The problem was that it was written by Ray Bradbury and as you might guess most of his stuff is copyrighted or trademarked. So, I got on the google machine and began my quest on The Monster Maker by Ray Bradbury. I was pleased to find that it first appeared in Planet Stories' Spring edition of 1944. That means that it is in public domain and can be used on the show. This is a great story and I know that  you are going to enjoy it. "Get Gunther," the official orders read. It was to laugh! For Click and Irish were marooned on the pirate's asteroid—their only weapons a single gun and a news-reel camera.
