Hugo and Nebula award winning author Robert J.Sawyer has just announced the completion of a third pilot for the proposed weekly radio science fiction radio show FASTER THAN LIGHT. Produced by Joe Mahoney and Fergus Heywood for CBC Radio One, the half-hour long program includes:
-An interview with Julie E. Czerneda, one of Canada’s best SF writers
-A mini documentary on aliens in movies
-A short essay by Robet J. Sawyer on “the other” in science fiction
-An original full-cast radio drama based on Richard Matheson’s 1950 short story “Born of Man And Woman”!
Sounds like a real winner. The word is that if the pilot is picked up there could be as many as ten episodes of Faster Than Light broadcast over the summer! We will keep you updated as more information is available, this is really terrific news!
