Archival Adventures: Succubus by K.F. Ziska

Archival Adventures: Succubus by K.F. Ziska

It's time for an adventure! This week we return to author and sci-fi historian Sam Moskowitz's 1940 letter to the editor of Comet, where he listed the classics of the genre. Today's tale: Succubus by K.F. Ziska - the sixth story on his list. Karl Francis, or K.F, Ziska was a science fiction author who published several times in Astounding Stories but has mostly faded into obscurity. In this eerie adventure we encounter a mad scientist, strange plants, and an even stranger relationship. Join us as we explore this nightmarish mystery!
