You are listening to a Clark's World magazine podcast with your host and narrator, Kate Baker.

Greetings Clark's World Citizens.

I hope this podcast finds you extraordinarily well.

This is our fourth story for the month of July 2021 issue 178.

I hope you have enjoyed all of this month's stories so far.

We have three more left for you for the month after this, and I hope you come back and

listen.

I want to thank you for your ongoing support of the magazine, whether that is listening

or more a month so that you can help us bring this kind of content your way.

Our story is titled Preserved in Amber and is by Samantha Murray.

Samantha Murray is a writer, mathematician, and mother, not particularly in that order.

Our work has appeared in Clark's World, beneath Cecil Skies, Interzone, and Escape Pod

among others, and has been collected in the year's best Australian fantasy and horror,

and the best science fiction of the year volume four.

Samantha has won an Oriental Award for Best Science Fiction Short Story.

You can follow her on Twitter at Samantha and Murray.

Samantha lives in Western Australia and a household of unruly boys.

If you like what you hear, you can go to November 2016 for a sight of mind of heart.

So my dear listener, I hope that you can sit back, relax, and let me tell you a story.
