  • Man–Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest - Alone on a Dying World—Hunted by a Machine That Never Stops
    One man alone on a planet of death. — A deadly robot made especially to pursue a human being. Was it just a cruel sport devised for some bloodthirsty pleasure? Built to Kill, Programmed to Chase—The Ultimate Predator Has No Mercy. Man-Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Today’s featured author is James Rosenquest—and no, not James Rosenquist, the famous American pop artist. When you search for our James Rosenquest online, Google will try to convince you that you meant the other guy. But we’re here to shine a light on the lesser-known Rosenquest—the science fiction writer.So what do we know about him? Honestly, not a whole lot. He published just five sci-fi stories in 1959 and one more in 1960—and then disappeared from the literary scene. That’s the entirety of his known work. But as always, even brief sparks can leave a lasting impression. From page 44 in the August 1959 issue of Super Science Fiction, Man-Hunting Robot by James Rosenquest…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Mars' fever they called it.
