About This Podcast

Originally serialized in Amazing Stories in 1934, Triplanetary became the foundation for the beloved Lensman series. After its initial success, author E.E. Smith expanded the story into a full-length novel, adding six new chapters that transformed it into a prequel, enriching the backstory of the protagonists in the Lensmen saga. This revised edition, published 14 years later, delves into an eons-long eugenics project orchestrated by the super-intelligences of Arisia, who are engineering two genetic lines to forge the ultimate weapon in their cosmic conflict against the Eddore. The narrative spans from the fall of Atlantis during Neros reign to the tumultuous events of World Wars One, Two, and Three. The final chapter introduces the groundbreaking inertialess drive that enables faster-than-light travel. As Patrolman Conway Costigan and his companions confront the pirate gangster Gray Roger, they must navigate the complexities of an interstellar war against the technologically advanced Nevians. This thrilling tale introduces Virgil Samms and Roderick Kinnison, key figures in the eugenics project who will take center stage in the next installment, First Lensman.
