SURPRISE POP-UP EPISODE #24 NOW AVAILABLE!
Every other Sunday we will explore beyond our perceived reality, into the short stories of some of the best authors of classic science fiction and dark fantasy.
Beyond the Center will be taking a break for the next few weeks, so there will be no new episodes during that time. I hope that you will take this opportunity to listen to some of the episodes you may not have had the chance to listen to yet, while narrator Ross Freier focuses on some other voice acting projects he is currently working on.

"Beside Still Waters" by Robert Sheckley
Mark, a space faring prospector, decides to settle himself on a slab of rock in the asteroid belt after making a decent enough strike. He and his companion, Charles, become close friends, taking care of one another whilst enjoying each other's company and conversation. A touching story, with an inevitable conclusion.
The short story for this episode is by Robert Sheckley, and is entitled "Beside Still Waters". This story was first published in the Oct.-Nov. 1953 issue of Amazing Stories.
