Invader from Infinity by George Whittington Vintage Science Fiction Short Story Audiobook sleepstory
"Destroy the Invader," the orders read-and Captain McPartland's expendable spacer flashed into suicidal battle.
This George A. Whittington is a bit of a mystery. A one shot wonder, or a pseudonym? There does not seem to be any information about this specific author to be found online, or it might simply be a case of the proverbial needle in the haystack of namesake Georges and Whittingtons. Anyway, this story is one of four credited to this name, published in the years 1944, 1945 and 1946.
No background music, by popular demand. Only my voice, croaks, wheezes, and all. Enjoy!

Many thanks, Tom!!! Love your narrations!! 👏👏
Flashlight feint frags frightful foe. Fantastic! Thanks, Tom. ;)
Good story, thank you Sir
🐙💨 WHOO--HOO!! 1st! 🛸🚀
You beat me by 9 minutes.!
Thank you Tom.!! 👍 👍 👍
Thank you once again Tom.!! 👍 👍 👍
This was a good one, amazing 1940!
Love your commentary
😂gracias
🐙💨 WHOO--HOO!! 1st!
Yeah... This time, but I'll be waiting.! 😉 😉
This story ain't so good
Interesting, cheers Tom!
These stories hit close to home at the edge of WWIII.
Holy Froggy the Gremlin; Batman! (RUclips it up)
Could you do a video of Gene Wolfe's Shadow of the Torturer or it has copyrights? Sorry if you already did or dont want to do it. Loving this channel.
Thank you ever so much Tom.!! 👍 👍 👍 Your hard work is greatly appreciated.
❤🎉😅😊🎉❤
Love these collections. Thank you so much.
Great set.
Thank you for this quintuple-decker SF sandwhich. If I may politely contradict you, Tom: How to pronounce Fritz Leiber: ruclips.net/video/h1VsHwwJGxQ/видео.html
Thank you!!
Very good and suspenseful tale of Science fiction that has aged like a wine 😊 Thanks !
I can't help thinking that this should have been developed into something more substantial.
Hmmm...
Hi Tom; thanx for this one; never heard of this author previously. and it's Ghimbals, not Djimbals. Also, I don't think anyone would argue that the eccentric English pronunciation of LEFtenant is to be preferred over the (correct) pronunciation LOOtenant!
Thank you for the comment, I do appreciate it :). In both these cases, I believe we have "two countries divided by a common language" ... as I checked "gimbal" specifically before narrating: Oxford Dictionary says: gimbal /ˈdʒɪmb(ə)l/ While the American Merriam-Webster has both with a G and a J "Leftenant" is correct when using a distinctly British accent as I do. It is simply how the word is pronounced in Britain. so, it's a case of tomayto, tomahto and both of us are in the right :)
I have no idea why people dont make more audiobook videos like this: Just narration, text on black screen.So simple and good to follow along 😂
Probably because it is so easy to overthink things... :)
I've got that lovin' feeling...
🐙💨 WHOO--HOO!! 1st!
I like a good sci fi story with a touch of humor. Nice choice nicely narrated.
Classic 👌
I love it.
Now we know where all the missing socks go. ;) Thanks, Tom.
I found this a strange and very different tale that was somehow rather delightful! Thanks..
🐙💨 WHOO--HOO!! 1st!
Still Lovin it!!

Persistent primate perpetually pursues peeved protagonist. Thanks, Tom. ;)
Good story. Thank you for posting
Classic
Thank you Tom.!! 👍 👍 👍
peasant!
Good stuff! I've never read a sci-fi wrestling story before! It was great!
Very amusing 😅
Do you ever get feedback on who these obscure or pseudonymous writers were?
HaHa! Funny!
TrusseRRRR
I imagine the apparent confusion concerning the sounds in my non-English name might stem from an inability to distingish between the alveolar tap /r/ and the alveolar lateral approximant /l/ that might seem identical to native English speakers.
What languages the most interesting thing?
Ah!!! 🐙💨 not first...😞
Ha!
Absutd story.
Yes, time travel stories often are. Isn't it great? :)
Thank you once again Tom.!! 👍 👍 👍
You are most welcome :)
A great one! Can't believe I haven't read it before.
In my experience, there is always more to be discovered out there :)
