The Hunted Heroes

The Hunted Heroes is a science fiction short story by Robert Silverberg, first published in 1956.

The Hunted Heroes is a futuristic story that holds great hope for the resilience of the human race after the war destroys most of the world.

The planet itself was tough enough--barren, desolate, forbidding; enough to stop the most adventurous and dedicated. But they had to run head-on against a mad genius who had a motto: Death to all Terrans!

The Hunted Heroes was published first in Amazing Stories, in 1956.

Total Running Time (TRT): 37 min.
