A factory worker wakes up far from Earth after a routine job triggers something no one warned him about. What he learns there forces a choice between keeping quiet—and deciding who gets to live longer back home. Welcome to Paradise by Allyn Donnelson. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.

If you consider yourself the biggest science-fiction fan on the planet and you’ve never heard of Allyn Donnelson, you’re forgiven. He appears to have published only a single story, and beyond that, nothing. We don’t know when or where he was born or anything about him. I’ve said this before about authors with just one published story—and I’ll say it again, I can’t help wishing there had been more.

Published in Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy in September 1954 on page 86, Welcome to Paradise by Allyn Donnelson…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, When a glimpse of tomorrow reveals how the world is undone, a scientist is given a narrow window to act. The risk isn’t failure—but coming back unable to remember what he changed. World’s End by Henry Kuttner.
