Age of Aces
Now available!
Through the dark night sky, streaking swiftly with their Hisso engines
thundering, is the greatest trio of aces on the Western Front—the famous
and inseparable “Three Mosquitoes,” the mightiest flying combination that
had ever blazed its way through overwhelming odds and laughed to tell of
it! At point was Captain Kirby, impetuous young leader of the great trio;
on his right was little Lieutenant “Shorty” Carn, the mild-eyed, corpulent
little Mosquito and lanky Lieutenant Travis, eldest and wisest of the Mosquitoes
on his left! Flying in a V formation through four exciting hell-bent tales
from the pages of Popular Publication’s Battle Aces.
Stories Include: The X-Gun Flight (Jan 32), The Iron Ace (Feb 32), The Flying
Dreadnought (Jun 32), The 20-Ace Patrol (Jul 32). All illustrated by John
Fleming Gould
Captain Philip Strange is back in eight more weird WWI stories spanning
the run of the series in the penultimate volume of this series. A mental
marvel from birth, who used his talents on stage as a boy, Philip Strange
is now known as “The Phantom Ace of G-2? by the Allies during WWI and the
verdamntBrain-Devil by the Boche. Just when you thought there were no more
ways to die in war, the Germans come up with some even more gruesome ways!
if you’re not just being incinerated by the sun’s ray focused through enormous
lenses, you’re being gassed with a horribly disfiguring plague; drowned in
a sea of blood or injected with a serum that turns you into a hyped up fighting
hellion until you keel over dead; maybe you’ll be lucky and just have your
own munitions blow up your entire outfit, or simply have your head chopped
off and mounted on some psychotic ace’s wings. Thankfully, we have have Captain
Philip Strange on our side to stop them in eight of his strangest cases yet
from the pages of Flying Aces magazine!
Stories Include: The Code of K-14 (Feb 32), The Masked Marauders (Mar 33),
The Sky Torch (Apr 33), Marauders Without Mercy (Oct 33), Legion of the Lost
(Aug 34), Valley of Vengeance (Jun 35), Fokkers of the Red Fog (Aug 37),

Farewell
Altus Press, Hello Steeger Books
Welcome to the new home of what was (for many years) AltusPress.com.
Hopefully you’ve found your way here from redirects from altuspress.com…
if so, please update your bookmarks.
Why the change?
Well, there are a few reasons. Several years ago, Altus Press was acquired
by Steeger Properties, LLC, and there has been some degree of confusion in
regards to the relationship between the two, such as on invoices sent from
the website, on credit card charges, etc.
For the last couple of years, altuspress.com has sold other publishers’
books, in addition to its own. To make things more confounding, Steeger Properties
also had its own imprints for certain publications. In the end, it made for
more questions when things should’ve been made much easier to understand.
Now, all of Steeger Properties’ imprints have been grouped together under
one pulp fiction superstore, steegerbooks.com. We’ve made it very clear how
to navigate these imprints on this new site. More on this below.
The Altus Press imprint will live on and will be used on certain public
domain and legacy book series, so it’s not disappearing.
The new website
We’ve heeded the suggestions that customers of Altus Press have supplied
us to improve their shopping experience: this new site has a prominent search
option at the top of every page. We’ve added additional options to browse
books by author or illustrator, by series, and by imprint. It will now be
easy to find many more related titles each time your start browsing our store.
In the near future, you’ll be able to peruse older titles’ front and back
covers, and you’ll be able to preview their interiors, to give you a good
look at the books’ contents.
While some of the these features will only be enabled for newer titles,
we’ll be going back & adding them to older books too.
In addition to picking up the pace on new ebook releases, we’ll also be
gradually releasing a new line of electronic pulp titles. More on these in
the near future.
I’m a long-time Altus Press customer: what do I need to do?
Nothing! Your altuspress.com login should work seamlessly on steegerbooks.com,
and you’ll be able to see your older purchases, edit your account details,
etc. In addition, we’ll be adding a Wishlist feature in order to save and
share pulp releases. We’re also beefing up the customer service sections
of our website. We want to make this the place to go in order to get your
pulp fiction publications and to remove as much hassle from the process as
possible.
Please let us know via our Contact page if there are any broken elements
on the site, what you think of our redesign, and what we can improve.

The Spider #15: The Red Death Rain
By Norvell W. Page, writing as Grant Stockbridge
A woman lighted a cigarette, puffed it a few times, and began to scream,
to tear her clothes from her body. Her head twisted back between her shoulders
and she died a horrible convulsive death-death from tobacco smoke! The lascivious
cultist, Deacon Coslin, had seen his mad prophecy fulfilled… for already
other smokers, everywhere throughout the land, were dying by tens of thousands!
With Richard Wentworth’s beloved Nita in the power of the enemy, facing an
unspeakable death; with his faithful servants drugged and out of the battle;
with the police hounding hint and the arch-criminal foreseeing every strategy,
how can the Spider combat the overwhelming odds aligned against him? How
can he save his compatriots from the Red Death Rain—save the land he loves
from domination by an ambition-twisted brain?
$13.95 softcover
On sale for $12.95 until August 23.
Operator 5 #8: The Green Death Mists
By Curtis Steele, Frederick C. Davis, John Fleming Gould
The mad Emperor, warrior descendant of the ravagers of Asia, unleashed a
new, horrible, ingenious weapon against the American people. While slant-eyed
Mongols bent over a powerful death-machine, a thousand miles away, the air
became unbreathable! Men and women and children—all living things—gasped
for life-giving oxygen, and with searing, heaving lungs, fell strangled by
the mysterious, deadly element. Against these demoniacal hordes, one man
alone—Operator 5—struggles while red revolt and destruction blasts America!

Except The Major Volume 3 which is coming soon!
Dime Detective, Max Brand, H. Bedford-Jones, and
the complete Scientific Club by Ray Cummings
headline a lineup of 14 new titles to see print this August.
Altus Press will have them in stock & available for order at www.altuspress.com
or
via Mike Chomko’s table at the Pulpfest 2019 Show in Pittsburgh, PA, on
August 15.
The list of titles includes:
The Complete Tales of the Scientific
Club (Deluxe Edition)
by Ray Cummings
introduction by Will Murray, illustrated by Joseph
A. Farren, F.M. Follett, Virgil Finlay, Roger B. Morrison,
Frank R. Paul, Norman Saunders, Amos Sewell, Modest Stein, Lawrence Sterne
Stevens, and Raymond Wardell
One of the most historically significant Twentieth Century science fiction
series ever published is at last collected. A pioneer in pulp science fiction,
Ray Cummings inspired an entirely-new fiction genre with his influential
story originally published in 1919, The Girl in the Golden Atom, which introduced
the world to a series of short stories and novels known as his “Matter, Space
and Time” range.
This suite of stories featured the Scientific Club: a group of New York-based
socialites of revolving membership who either recounted these tales of fantastic
science—or were directly involved in these tales which originally appeared
in the top magazines of the 1920s: All Story Weekly, Argosy, Detective Story
Magazine, Flynn’s, and Science and Invention, among others.
This collection assembles all of the Scientific Club stories, sourced directly
from their original magazine appearances… most of which have never before
been reprinted. In addition, this deluxe edition includes all of Cummings’
Scientific Club stories which appeared exclusively in the United Kingdom.
It also gathers the later Scientific Club stories from a brief revival in
the mid-1930s.
No stone has been left unturned for this edition: two hitherto-unknown Scientific
Club stories were discovered, and these have been included, along with 26
other stories. And among the many bonus features is a rare, alternate, early
version of one of the Scientific Club stories.
Rounded out by vintage illustrations by Virgil Finlay, Frank R. Paul, Norman
Saunders, Amos Sewell, Modest Stein, and Lawrence Sterne Stevens, and with
an all-new introduction by Will Murray, The Complete Tales of the Scientific
Club is a book one hundred years in the making.

One of the great villain pulps from the 1930s is finally available in a
complete, deluxe edition. Owing certain similarities to Sax Rohmer’s Fu Manchu,
the Dr. Yen Sin series of three novels features “The Invisible Emperor” and
his machinations to conquer the world using his unique mixture of futuristic
science and ancient Asian technology. However, Yen Sin has met his match:
“The Man Who Never Slept”—agent Michael Traile—who has the strange capability
of not require sleep.
Includes an all-new introduction by current Fu Manchu author William Patrick
Maynard, as well as a chronology of the character by Rick Lai.

The 7th Day
by Frederick Faust
introduction by Andrew Salmon
illustrated by Charles LaSalle and Harold Wellington McCrea
Seven days to solve a murder! Tony Newcomen, a fiction writer, gets a call
from his friend and mentor, Thomas Decker. Decker believes his life is in
danger—but he’s unable to offer more information, as he is murdered while
on the phone! Determined to uncover his friend’s killer amidst the idle rich
and lavish estates of 1930s Florence, Newcomen will stop at nothing to bring
the guilty to justice. He must walk a razor’s edge as he digs deeper into
the case. The local police are out to get him, he’s in danger of losing his
heart to the prime suspect and the murderer is more than willing to add another
victim to end the investigation.
Out of print since its original magazine publication more than 80 years
ago, The 7th Day appears here in book form for the first time. Rich in atmosphere
and with an intriguing cast of characters, The 7th Day is Frederick Faust
at his nuanced best.
Also included is the short story, “Devil Dog,” which takes readers into
the frozen wasteland of Alaska for a harrowing, fast-paced tale of murder
and revenge in the fevered quest for gold.

A Seabold Fights
by Frederick Faust
introduction by Andrew Salmon
illustrated by Ralph Pallen Coleman
The best steel goes through the fire: Joseph Seabold hates the family business.
But his aging cousin—running the Seabold Fruit Company—sees the young man
as his successor. To test his mettle, he sends Seabold south of the border
to the Republic of San Esteban where the company has a hand in the local
politics to keep the company running. But revolution is brewing: the Republic
is a powder keg about to explode! A naive mistake brands Seabold an enemy
of the state and he has no choice but to join the revolution to overthrow
the government. What follows is a roller-coaster ride of gritty battles,
cold betrayals, steamy romance and heartless double crosses as only Frederick
Faust can deliver.
This riveting tale has never been reprinted and appears in book form for
the first time. Frederick Faust fans rejoice! This long neglected classic
is back for a new audience to devour. This is Faust at his best.

Softcover: $124.70 $99.00
The creation of Carroll John Daly, father of the hard-boiled private eye,
Vee Brown—AKA the Crime Machine—plied his trade in the pages of Dime Detective,
the classic crime pulp that was second only to the legendary Black Mask in
its impact on the genre.
Vivian “Vee” Brown leads two lives. Delicate-looking and small in stature,
he lacks physical strength and endurance. But that doesn’t prevent him from
being an effective special operative to the Manhattan District Attorney.
In this capacity he often ignores the legal niceties of due process, shooting
first and asking questions later. Many citizens view him as a hair-trigger
gunman whose promiscuous killings make him little better than the vicious
criminals he hunts. In his other life, Brown lives in a luxurious Park Avenue
penthouse, paid for not with his modest civil-servant salary, but with the
royalties he earns as a phenomenally successful composer of sentimental songs—a
sideline he keeps secret. Both the police and the underworld refer to him
as a “Killer of Men.” But the denizens of Tin Pan Alley know him as “Master
of Melodies,” the prince of pop music.
Volume 2 features the Crime Machine’s battles with his greatest nemesis,
the Emperor of Evil.

Bailbondsman William “Bail-Bond” Dodd was the first series character that
hard-boiled genius Norbert Davis created for Harry Steeger’s best detective
pulp. Running for eight installments, Volume 2 collects the balance of the
series. This unique series was one of the best Davis ever wrote for the pages
of Dime Detective.
6″x9″
| 222 pages | $19.95 softcover | $29.95 hardcover
Meet the original necrologist sleuth: tall, gaunt Ho Humberton was a funeral
director by day and detective at night… often those with more than a touch
of the supernatural. Featuring the first half of this trend-setting detective
series, this was one of the most popular series characters from the pages
of Dime Detective. Also featuring the very first Horatio Humberton story,
undiscovered for nearly 100 years.
6″x9″
| 337 pages | $19.95 softcover | $29.95 hardcover
Detective Todd Naughton of the central-office arson squad investigated some
of the strangest arson and murder cases ever to appear in Dime Detective
Magazine. Originally seeing print during the peak 1936–37 period of Dime
Detective, this four-story complete series has never before been reprinted.
6″x9″
| 230 pages | $19.95 softcover | $29.95 hardcover
Written during a period when the detective pulps showcased more gritty,
realistic characters and situations, writer Arthur Leo Zagat penned a series
of novelettes featuring the diminutive Anne Marsh, reluctant detective who
must solve the death of her father and wage grim war in behalf of the city’s
oppressed. Running for eight installments, this unique series was one of
the few purposefully finite series from the pulp era, and one of the only
female detective series characters to see print in a Popular Publications-published
title.
6″x9″
| 298 pages | $19.95 softcover | $29.95 hardcover
Written at the height of Dime Detective’s popularity, author William E.
Barrett (Lilies of the Field) penned this series featuring newspaperman Dean
Culver, whose column—The Blue Barrel—dispensed gossip on the criminal underworld.
No one called Dean Culver the Blue Barrel—for no one knew he was the author
of the underworld-gossip column signed with that name each night in the Morning
Star. If the easy-money players had ever guessed that the man who paid them
off was the Walter Winchell of the other side of the law, he’d he cashing
in his own checks at the first turn of the wheel, instead of those of the
gamblers he spun it for.

The World Was Their Stage (The H. Bedford-Jones Library)
by H. Bedford-Jones
illustrated by George Avison, Merritt Berger, Pedar Cavanagh, John Richard
Flanagan, Peter Kuhlhoff, J. Clinton Shepherd, and Raymond Sisley
cover by Herbert Morton Stoops
Spanning ancient Roman times, Normandy, medieval England and Germany, France,
and colonial America, and including appearances by Cleopatra, d’Artagnan,
and Cyrano de Bergerac, author H. Bedford-Jones details some of the most
pivotable moments in history in this interconnected 17-part historical epic.

of the Pulps,” H. Bedford-Jones, and has never before been reprinted.

Barbary Gold (The H. Bedford-Jones Library)
by H. Bedford-Jones
Sunken treasure in the Barbary waters off Africa! A group of three wartime
adventurers are after a fortune in German gold: a sunken sub hides the horde,
but they’ll have to fight pirates, Germans, and unknown dangers to recover
it.
Written in the early days of the career of the prolific “King of the Pulps”—H.
Bedford-Jones—Barbary Gold has never before been collected in book form.
It’s a fast-paced adventure… the type which made H. Bedford-Jones one of
the most beloved authors of the first half of the Twentieth Century.

THE FANTASY FICTION OF HANNES BOK
New Kickstarter campaign now online!
This project will only be funded if it reaches its goal by Saturday,
September 28, 2019
THE FANTASY FICTION OF HANNES BOK Kickstarter is now online!
We're excited to bring acclaimed artist Hannes Bok's three solo fantasy
novels into hardcover for the first time!
Both THE SORCERER'S SHIP and BEYOND THE GOLDEN STAIR were previously published
as part of Ballantine Books' Adult Fantasy paperback line. His first novel-length
tale: STARSTONE WORLD, is a much shorter and darker piece, which has never
been reprinted since it appeared in Science Fiction Quarterly #7, [Summer
of 1942], over 75 years ago.
These aren't your conventional fantasies, although all the trappings are
there. His novels have a sly humor with plots containing unconventional twists
and turns; a strange metaphysical bent; and his artist's talent for glorious
description.
THE FANTASY FICTION OF HANNES BOK's cover art is a never-before-published
painting by Bok. A piece which mirrors the masculine, feminine, grotesque
and transcendent archetypes which populate the novels within.
We'll be including Ballantine Adult Fantasy editor Lin Carter's introductions
to THE SORCERER'S SHIP and BEYOND THE GOLDEN STAIR, plus an all-new introduction
detailing the history of THE SORCERER'S SHIP by Bok collector, Professor
William Lorenzo. Publisher, Robert T. Garcia will provide an introduction
to STARSTONE WORLD. And we've discovered a number of unpublished photos of
Bok to add to these intros as well.
Bok's pulp art for THE SORCERER'S SHIP is included, plus two paintings specified
by the artist as illustrating that novel: a color reprise of an interior
illustration and a color portrait of the creature Yanuk done for a fan.

The novel is set in the 1480s, during the war in which the French
annexed Bretagne.
At the Benedictine Abbey in Paimpol, a scholarly monk named Ollivier, reputed
to have practiced necromancy, is buried under the watchful eyes of two Dominican
heresy hunters, the burial only attended by his fellow scholar Brother Primael,
who believes him to be innocent of any wrongdoing, and believes the same
of Gilles de Rais, whose court at Tiffauges both men visited in their youth.
Before falling ill, Ollivier had spent three months at the Château
de Tardivel and the forested region of Herbriant, where the epileptic chatelaine
was once locked away by her husband as a madwoman, and her daughter Aidrena,
is also chronically ill, while the young Vicomte who has recently inherited
the title, Corentin, has indeed been practicing necromancy with Ollivier’s
aid. Primael is sent to Tardivel at Corentin’s request, ostensibly to give
succor to his mother and sister, but actually to assist him in his experiments
in necromancy, now aimed at the summoning of Ollivier’s spirit.
Primael is immediately engulfed in a nightmarish series of events, both
hallucinatory and real, through which he must negotiate a path in the hope
of deciding in which direction virtue really lies, and solving the puzzle
of exactly what Ollivier and Corentin had accomplished in their necromancy,
and what its consequences might be for the inhabitants of Tardivel.

1900: Gouroull, Victor Frankenstein’s lethal creation, wanders the
snowy steppes in the heart of frozen Siberia and receives an offer he cannot
refuse. If he opens a path for the ancient, alien beings known as the Outer
Gods, their servant will provide him a perfect mate.

Roman Emperor, and a strange man named Whateley in his worldwide quest for
his mate. Will his new ally, an odd holy man named Grigori Rasputin, fulfill
his end of the bargain?
Based on Mary Shelley's classic work of terror, as reinterpreted by Academy
award-winning screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière in the 1950s, The
Spells of Frankenstein tells the story of an evil, violent version of the
monster. The creature, known as Gouroull, roams the world, his plans both
fiendish and lethal for all life on Earth.

BLOOD 'N' THUNDER VOLUME 2 NUMBER 1
Now shipping!
Between 2002 and 2016, Blood
‘n’ Thunder was the premier journal for devotees of adventure, mystery and
melodrama in American popular culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
This award-winning magazine, written by enthusiasts for enthusiasts, eventually
expanded its readership to include casual fans of vintage storytelling mediums:
pulp fiction, motion pictures, Old Time Radio drama, and so on. BnT, moribund
for three years, has now returned in a new format but with the same excellence
of writing and research. The articles and essays are scholarly without being
dry or academic in nature; no publish-or-perish tedium here.
This revival issue covers a variety of subjects, all related to pulp fiction.
David Kalb documents the history of the long-lost 1941-42 radio series featuring
Street & Smith’s Avenger; he compares recently uncovered scripts to the
novels from which they are adapted. David Saunders, whose father Norman was
among the most prolific painters of lurid pulp covers, profiles the forgotten
publisher J. Thomas Wood. Novelist and pop-culture historian Will Murray
weighs in on pulp pulchritude—an appreciation of artists whose covers sported
alluring women. Indefatigable researcher Rick Lai offers a detailed chronology
of the Jimgrim saga, a multi-novel series penned by pulp-fiction giant Talbot
Mundy. Blood ‘n’ Thunder editor Ed Hulse celebrates the Zorro centennial
(he first appeared in a 1919 issue of the legendary All-Story Weekly) with
a behind-the-scenes account of the making of Douglas Fairbanks’ 1920 swashbuckling
hit The Mark of Zorro. Ed also documents the making of Hawk of the Wilderness,
a 1938 cliffhanger serial adapted from the popular imitation-Tarzan novels
that appeared in the venerable pulp Blue Book.

Blood 'N' Thunder
/ Murania Press
Before the trend
toward specialization—before the hard-boiled dicks, before the Skylarks and
Lensmen, before the Shadows and Spiders—pulp magazines offered escapist fiction
that appealed to readers of all stripes. Virtually every story was suffused
with the spirit of adventure; beyond that there was great variety in theme
and setting. Qualities that became pronounced during the era of genre pulps
were already evident in rough-paper yarns of the 20th century’s first two
decades. Sadly, many great stories from this period are unknown to today’s
pulp aficionados, especially inasmuch as the issues in which they appeared
are hard-to-find collector’s items.
Murania Press has rescued from obscurity ten noteworthy novels originally
published in such legendary pulps as Adventure, Blue Book, The Argosy, The
Cavalier, and The Popular Magazine between 1908 and 1921. Some never saw
publication in hard covers, others did but have been out of print for many
decades. This group of exemplary stories, written by early pulpdom’s top
fictioneers, is being republished as a series titled “Forgotten Classics
of Pulp Fiction.”
Each book, measuring six by nine inches, utilizes the same cover design.
Each is numbered on the spine, alphabetically by author. Each has an informative
introductory essay putting the novel and its author in proper historical
context for maximum appreciation by readers.
Stories in the “Forgotten Classics” series take place in a variety of locales:
India, the Appalachian Mountains, the American West, the Gobi Desert, the
Canadian northwest, the French Riviera, the South Seas, colonial-era Kentucky,
and a mythical Balkan state. Within the group a reader will detect genre
elements that would become more distinct and pronounced in pulp fiction of
subsequent decades. But each novel is, at its core, a rousing adventure story
clearly and vividly told. You’d never guess these gems were written a hundred
or more years ago.
Murania Press has previously published four of the listed novels in its
“Classic Pulp Reprint” series. Those books, now withdrawn from circulation,
sold for $20 per title. Each of the “Forgotten Classics” volumes is priced
at $16, and the entire set of ten will be available at $120, which
includes shipping to buyers in the United States.
The “Forgotten Classics of Pulp Fiction” will begin shipping on May 1. Between
now and then we’ll be running individual blog posts with additional information
on each book. For now, here are the titles and the magazines from which they
have been sourced:
1. H. Bedford-Jones, The Wilderness Trail. Originally published in
the February 1915 issue of Blue Book.
2. B. M. Bowers, The Spook Hills Mystery. Originally published in
the November 7, 1914 issue of The Popular Magazine.
3. George Bronson-Howard, The Return of Yorke Norroy. Originally
published in the October 1908 issue of The Popular Magazine.
4. A. M. Chisholm, Fur Pirates. Originally published in the October
20, 1915 issue of The Popular Magazine.
5. J. Allan Dunn, Barehanded Castaways. Originally published in the
December 20, 1921 issue of Adventure.
6. George Allan England, The Elixir of Hate. Originally published
in the August-November 1911 issues of The Cavalier.
7. Francis Lynde, B. Typhosus Takes a Hand. Originally published
in the October 20, 1921 issue of The Popular Magazine.
8. Talbot Mundy, Yasmini the Incomparable. Originally published in
the January 1914 and July-September 1915 issues of Adventure.
9. Perley Poore Sheehan, The Abyss of Wonders. Originally published
in the January 1915 issue of The Argosy.
10. Gordon Young, Savages. Originally published in the May 3, 1918 and July
18-September 3, 1919 issues of Adventure.

CAPTAIN FUTURE RETURNS!
Coming in November!
Allen Steele has announced
that he will soon be continuing the adventures of Captain
Future.
From Allen
Steele's announcement:
This fall Experimenter
Publishing, the publisher of AMAZING STORIES, will be launching EDMOND HAMILTON'S
CAPTAIN FUTURE as a paperback/ebook series called "Amazing Stories Selects."
The first issue, scheduled for release in November, will feature "Captain
Future in Love", the long novella that ran as a two-part serial in AMAZING
last year; it will also include an essay about the history of Captain Future
and how and why I reinvented this classic SF character. This will kick off
a four-part story cycle, "The Return of Ul Quorn", that will run for the
next three issues; the second installment, "The Guns of Pluto", is now being
written, and we're aiming to publish it early next year.
As I've said a couple of years ago when my first CF novel, AVENGERS
OF THE MOON, was published by Tor, although my take on the character is derived
from Edmond Hamilton's novels of the 1940's, this ain't your grandpa's Captain
Future. Authorized by the Hamilton estate, this is an updated and revised
version of the original pulp series. For example, feast your eyes on Curt
Newton's ship, the "Comet II". Rob Caswell, the illustrator, and I put a
lot of time and thought into designing a plausible new version of this classic
ship ... and this is just a preview of things to come.
As things come together, AMAZING and I will release more info about
EHCF, including where and how to purchase single issues and subscriptions.
If you're a fan of high adventure and space opera in the grand tradition,
we think you'll like this. Stay tuned.

Clive Cussler: THE TITANIC SECRET (An Isaac Bell Adventure)
- Coming September 10!
by Clive Cussler & Jack Du Brul
A century apart, NUMA Director Dirk Pitt and detective Isaac Bell team up
to unlock the truth about the most famous maritime disaster of all time.
In the present day, Pitt makes a daring rescue from inside an antiquated
submersible in the waters off New York City. His reward afterwards is a document
left behind a century earlier by legendary detective Isaac Bell--a document
that re-opens a historical mystery...
In 1911, in Colorado, Isaac Bell is asked to look into an unexplained tragedy
at Little Angel Mine, in which nine people died. His dangerous quest to answer
the riddle leads to a larger puzzle centered on byzanium, a rare element
with extraordinary powers and of virtually incalculable value. As he discovers
that there are people who will do anything to control the substance, Isaac
Bell will find out just how far he'll go to stop them.

HEROES OF ATLANTIS AND LEMURIA
By Manly Wade Wellman & Leigh Bracket
Coming this month!
In the late ‘70s legendary pulp fictioneer Manly Wade Wellman created
a fantasy hero named Kardios, who was the last survivor of Atlantis. The
five tales of Kardios Wellman penned appeared in anthologies such as Swords
Against Darkness and Heroic Fantasy, which are long out of print. For decades
sword and sorcery fans have clamored for all five stories to be reprinted
in a single collection, but their cries fell on deaf ears.
We at DMR Books have heard your call! Just as we brought collections by
Weird Tales writers Nictzin Dyalhis and Clifford Ball into paperback for
the first time, we will do what has never been done before and present to
you a Kardios collection!
Even better, the collection, which is entitled Heroes of Atlantis &
Lemuria, will contain more than just Kardios stories. All three of Frederick
Arnold Kummer, Jr.’s sword and sorcery stories set in Lemuria will be included
as well. These Lemurian adventures have never been collected before, either.
If that’s not enough, we’ll top it off with a hard to find Leigh Brackett
story set in Mu!
Heroes of Atlantis & Lemuria will be available mid-September. That’s
just a few short weeks away, so keep an eye out for it. It will be published
in trade paperback and digital formats.

Joseph Payne Brennan
New titles available!
Acclaimed by Stephen King as "a
master of the unashamed horror tale," Joseph Payne Brennan wrote hundreds
of tales of terror, suspense, and fantasy. Collectors and fans will delight
in this inexpensive reissue of Brennan's hard-to-find classic, Nine Horrors
and a Dream. This collection, originally published by Arkham House in 1958,
features stories published by Weird Tales and other pulp magazines of the
1950s — including the much-anthologized "Slime," which inspired the ever-popular
thriller The Blob.
Less familiar but equally gripping tales include "Levitation," in which
a carnival-goer has an unfortunate encounter with a hypnotist; "The Calamander
Chest," the story of a low-priced antique that turns out to be no bargain;
"Death in Peru," involving a lethal curse; the darkly humorous "On the Elevator";
and "The Green Parrot," which recounts a Good Samaritan's bad timing. Other
selections include "Canavan's Back Yard," featuring a property with a gruesome
history; "I'm Murdering Mr. Massington," which tells of a bizarre grasp at
immortality; "The Hunt," a playfully creepy yarn about an obsessive chase;
and "The Mail for Juniper Hill," in which a tipsy but determined postman
refuses to let anything — even death — keep him from his appointed rounds.

The Shapes
of Midnight
"Joseph Payne Brennan is one of the most effective writers in the
horror genre, and he is certainly one of the writers I have patterned my
own career upon," declared Stephen King. "In fact," he added, "The Shapes
of Midnight could serve as an exercise-book for the young writer who aspires
to pen and publish his or her own weird tales."
A poet as well as a writer of horror fiction, Brennan worked at Yale's Sterling
Memorial Library as an acquisitions assistant for over 40 years. He wrote
hundreds of stories for Weird Tales and other pulp magazines. This new edition
of his increasingly rare compilation, The Shapes of Midnight, presents 10
of his best stories.
Selections include "Diary of a Werewolf," a first-person account of bloody
sprees; "The Corpse of Charlie Rull," recounting the rampage of a radioactive
zombie; "The Pavilion," which unfolds at an abandoned seaside haunt with
something ghastly beneath its pilings; "House of Memory," a wistful look
at the past's imaginative grip; "The Willow Platform," featuring the machinations
of a self-styled warlock; and other chillingly memorable tales.

Edgar Rice Burroughs Books
TARZAN AND THE VALLEY OF GOLD
By Fritz Leiber
Cover by Richard Hescox
Now available!
At long
last, Tarzan and the Valley of Gold, Fritz Leiber's classic novel of the
Lord of the Jungle, is back in print
available for the first time in hardcover, and
featuring brand-new cover art by Richard Hescox and interior art by Douglas
Klauba!
A Tarzan Tale
Unlike Any Other
The year 1966 saw the release of one of the most unique Tarzan films ever
made: Tarzan and the Valley of Gold. Starring former NFL linebacker Mike
Henry in his debut as the cinematic ape-man, the film portrayed a cultured
and refined Tarzan who seemed to be molded more after James Bond than the
unsophisticated ape-man of past films. The depiction surprised and puzzled
some moviegoers, but fans who had read the original Tarzan novels written
by Edgar Rice Burroughs rejoiced at finally seeing their beloved character
appear on the big screen bearing all the complexity and intelligence with
which his creator had imbued him.
Enter critically acclaimed fantasy author Fritz
Leiber, whose novelization of the film carried the honor of becoming the
first authorized Tarzan novel to be written by an author other than Burroughs.
Leiber’s tale was far from just a simple retelling of the movie; it was a
faithful installment in the literary saga of the ape-man, with frequent callouts
to Burroughs’ original Tarzan canon and myriad creative elements added to
the storyline. Now readers can once again enjoy Fritz Leiber’s classic Tarzan
and the Valley of Gold in this handsome, new illustrated edition, with an
all-new foreward by Burroughs scholar Scott Tracy Griffin (author of Tarzan
on Film).
The Valley
of Gold...and Death
The burning wreck of a passenger jet with a missing cargo of gold and a
desperate plea from a friend lead Tarzan of the Apes deep into intrigue in
the jungles of Brazil. Soon the ape-man finds himself facing his most deadly
nemesis yet: a criminal mastermind named Vinaro, whose enemies perish in
mysterious explosions of gold and flame. But that may be only the beginning
of Tarzan’s challenges. For if he is to defeat Vinaro, Tarzan must confront
him in the legendary golden city of Tucumai, from where no outsider has ever
returned. FRITZ LEIBER – Author
A renowned and award-winning author of science fiction, fantasy, and horror,
Fritz Leiber (1910–1992) is best known for his Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser
fantasy series. He is credited with coining the term sword and sorcery and
is widely considered one of the genre’s founders. A SFWA Grand Master and
winner of six Hugo Awards, three Nebula Awards, and two World Fantasy Awards,
Leiber stands as a giant in the field of fantastic literature. RICHARD HESCOX
– Cover Art
Richard Hescox is one of the founding lights of the Imaginative Realism
movement. He has contributed artwork to such projects as the films E.T. and
The Dark Crystal, to computer games, record albums, and magazine illustrations.
He has also providing cover art and interior illustrations for hundreds of
books, including the limited edition of A Clash of Kings from the George
R. R. Martin’s bestselling Game of Thrones series. Richard previously painted
the iconic cover art for all five books of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Carson of
Venus series. DOUGLAS KLAUBA – Interior Art
An award-winning illustrator, Douglas Klauba was born and raised in Chicago,
and is a graduate of the American Academy of Art. His paintings have been
included in the art annuals of Spectrum: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic
Art, the Society of Illustrators, and Imagine FX magazine. He was Artist
Guest of Honor at the 2016 Burroughs Bibliophiles Dum-Dum convention, and
he previously provided artwork for the books Tarzan Trilogy and Untamed Pellucidar
published by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.

New on Famous (and forgotten) Fiction!
August 2019
Baroness Orczy wrote many different types of stories during her career
and "Young Muggins" shows yet another facet to her talents,
as she weaves a tale of love, selfishness and self-sacrifice in rural England.
Our reprinting appears just as it did in the May, 1906 issue of The Royal
Magazine, including the illustrations by J. Barnard Davis. Introduction
to the story is by Dan Neyer.
June 2019
This month we feature Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's mummy tale, Lot No. 249, including the illustrations by William
Thomas Smedley and an introduction by your humble scribes, Dan Neyer and
Bob Gay.
We've also done some behind the scenes work to make the site work better...do
stop by and check us out.
May 2019
Edmond Hamilton returns to our pages with "The Man Who Evolved," direct from the pages of the
April, 1931 issue of Wonder Stories, including the Frank R. Paul illustration.
Intro by Bob Gay
Also, we found a 1953 comic book story where the plot was (*ahem*) "borrowed"
from Hamilton's original and our unknown scribe managed to condense the story
down to a mere 4 pages.
Read the original first, then "Evolution" which appears as it originally appeared
in Tomb of Terror #12, with the digital restoration included at no extra
cost.
April 2019
We are very pleased to present The Neil R. Jones Collection, which starts with an 11,000+
word biography of Jones that incorporates his words, newspaper articles and
our research to create a long overdue portrait of the creator of Professor
Jameson. We have also located a nearly all of Jones' non-fiction writings
from various magazines and fanzines and have included them, along with 5,
never before reprinted, stories that chart his early years as an author.
Copiously illustrated throughout, we hope you enjoy it.
March 2019
An early science fiction opus, A Corner in Lightning by George Griffith, for the March,
1898 issue of Pearson's Magazine including the illustrations by Paul Hardy.
Introduction by Bob Gay.
November 2018
Baroness Orczy has not made an appearance on our pages in some time,
and this month we remedy that problem with an historical romance, “The Revenge of Ur-Tasen,” pretty close to how it appeared
in the June, 1900 issue of Pearson's Magazine, including the illustrations
by J. Ambrose Walton. Introduction is by Dan Neyer.
October 2018
Edmond Hamilton returns to our pages this month with "The Comet Doom" from the pages of the January, 1928
issue of Amazing Stories.
The Frank R. Paul illustration is included and hopefully readers will find
fascination with the parallels between this story and the Zoromes of Neil
R. Jones, something Bob Gay discusses in his introduction to the story.
September 2018
No fiction this month, but an extremely rare autobiographical sketch
of Neil R. Jones called (surprise!), "An Autobiographical Sketch of Neil R. Jones," reprinted
from the January, 1937 issue of Fantasy Magazine.
Bob Gay pens the introduction.
July 2018
Edmond Hamilton returns to our pages, with a tale of a deserted island
and evolution gone amok...it all comes together in "Evolution Island," a story from the March, 1927 issue
of Weird Tales with all the text, the title illustration and a newly written
introduction by Bob Gay.
June 2018
It has been some time since Baroness Orczy has graced our site and
this month you will find "Juliette A Tale of the Terror," the sixth published
story by the Baroness that is set during the French Revolution.
We have included all the original illustrations by the Baroness's husband,
Montagu Barstow, translations for all archaic words and phrases and an informative
introduction by Dan Neyer.

DESIGNS FOR DREAMING:
The Early Kuttner, Volume Three
Introduction by Dr. Garyn G. Roberts
Now available for pre-order!
Target
Date: April 2020!
All preorders of DESIGNS FOR DREAMING will ship with an exclusive
chapbook reprinting the long-lost 1938 terror-tale, MASTER OF THE DAMNED!
Before his marriage to (and subsequent collaborations with) Catherine L.
Moore, Henry Kuttner was a frequent contributor to the pulp magazines that
specialized in the weird, supernatural, horror, and science fiction genre.
Beginning in 1936, Kuttner launched a steady stream of short stories aimed
at Weird Tales, Strange Stories, Thrilling Mystery, and others.
Kuttner and Moore were married on June 7, 1940 in New York with artist Virgil
Finlay as Best Man. With NYC as his base of operations, Kuttner interfaced
on a frequent basis with the major local genre editors: Leo Margulies at
Standard Magazines (Thrilling Mystery, Thrilling Wonder Stories, Strange
Stories,), Alden H. Norton at Popular Publications (Astonishing Stories,
Strange Detective Mysteries) and perhaps most importantly, John W. Campbell,
Jr. at Street & Smith Publications (Unknown / Unknown Worlds). Campbell’s
Astounding Science Fiction will loom large in Kuttner’s career for the next
decade.
In DESIGNS FOR DREAMING (the third and final volume of “The Early Kuttner”)
Kuttner sells the last of his stories to the weird-menace pulps, places some
SF stories with lesser markets (Stirring Science Stories and Fantastic Adventures),
and delivers some of his finest fantasy work in Unknown Worlds. By the summer
of 1942, Kuttner’s Draft Status was reclassified as 1-A. By April 13, 1943,
Pfc Henry Kuttner had orders to report to Fort Dix, New Jersey. The early
phase of Kuttner’s career was over.

BLOOD SUGAR
Daniel Kraus
Cover art by Paul Mann
WHEN TRICK OR TREAT BECOMES LIFE OR DEATH
From the dark imagination of bestselling novelist Daniel Kraus—co-author
with Guillermo del Toro of THE SHAPE OF WATER (which as a film won the Academy
Award for Best Picture)—comes a Halloween crime story that’s like nothing
you’ve ever read before.
At the end of Yellow Street, in a ruined junkyard of a house, an angry outcast
hatches a scheme to take revenge for all the wrongs he has suffered. With
the help of three alienated neighborhood kids, he plans to hide razor blades,
poison, drugs, and broken glass in Halloween candy and use the deadly treats
to maim or kill dozens of innocent children. But as the clock ticks closer
to sundown, will one of his helpers—an innocent himself, in his own streetwise
way—carry out or defeat the plan?
Told principally from the child’s point of view, in a voice as startling
and unforgettable as A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, Kraus’ novel is at once frightening
and emotional, thought-provoking and laugh-out-loud funny. It’ll make you
rethink your concepts of family and loyalty and justice—and will leave you
anxiously double-checking the wrappers on your Halloween candy for the rest
of your days.
First publication anywhere!
Daniel Kraus is the New York Times-bestselling author of not only THE SHAPE
OF WATER and TROLLHUNTERS (both co-authored with Guillermo del Toro) but
also THE DEATH AND LIFE OF ZEBULON FINCH (named one of Entertainment Weekly’s
Top 10 Books of the Year) and ROTTERS and SCOWLER (both winners of the Odyssey
Award).
Kraus’ next project is THE LIVING DEAD, a posthumous collaboration with
legendary filmmaker George A. Romero.

Harryhausen: The Lost Movies -
Arriving in book stores September 10!
by John Walsh
The official guide to the unrealised films of Ray Harryhausen.
Known for his iconic stop-motion creatures, Ray Harryhausen was at the forefront
of Hollywood special effects for much of the 20th century. His films include
One Million Years B.C., Clash of the Titans and Jason and the Argonauts,
among others. But for every film that reaches the big screen, half a dozen
projects are never realised.
Harryhausen: The Lost Movies explores Harryhausen's unrealised films, including
unused ideas, projects he turned down and scenes that ended up on the cutting
room floor. This book includes never-been-seen-before artwork, sketches,
photos and test footage from the Harryhausen Foundation archives.
Hardcover: 192 pages

This is the first complete edition of the fiction of Anglo-Welsh
writer Arthur Machen (1863–1947) ever published. It includes the totality
of his short fiction, novelettes, novels, and prose poems. While there is
some debate as to what actually constitutes a short story in Machen’s work—especially
given his bountiful array of journalism, some of which borders on fiction—the
works in this volume are unquestionably narratives that feature one or more
elements of fictional composition. A substantial majority of these works
are tales of horror and the supernatural—a genre in which Machen has made
a lasting and ever-expanding impression.
The edition has been prepared by S. T. Joshi, a leading authority on weird
fiction and the author of The Weird Tale (1990) and Unutterable Horror: A
History of Supernatural Fiction (2012).
Joshi has prepared textually corrected editions of the work of H. P. Lovecraft,
Ambrose Bierce, and many other weird writers.
Volume 1: 1888–1895
This first volume contains his charming picaresque novel The Chronicle of
Clemendy (1888), an exquisite imitation of the medieval narratives of Chaucer
and Boccaccio. At this time Machen was a young journalist who had moved from
his native Wales to London, and he wrote a number of humorous and slightly
risqué sketches for fashionable London magazines. But then he published
“The Great God Pan” (1894), one of the pioneering works in the entire range
of weird fiction. It was condemned by contemporary reviewers as the work
of a diseased mind. Machen followed it up with the episodic novel The Three
Impostors (1895), containing the brilliant segments “The Novel of the Black
Seal” (which features the Little People, a sub-human race lurking on the
edges of civilization), “The Novel of the White Powder,” and other vivid
narratives.
Volume 2: 1896–1910
This second volume of Machen’s collected fiction begins with Machen’s most
accomplished novel, The Hill of Dreams (written in 1895–97 and published
in 1907), which H. P. Lovecraft called a “memorable epic of the sensitive
aesthetic mind.” It features Lucian Taylor, a young man from the country
who struggles to become a writer in London. His ruminations on life, love,
and authorship are extraordinarily poignant, and at one point he engages
in a lengthy dream of being back in ancient Rome, in the town of Isca Silurum,
near his birthplace in Wales. Later in 1897 Machen wrote a series of exquisite
prose poems that were later published as Ornaments in Jade (1924). These
ten vignettes display Machen’s luminous prose at its most evocative, and
they touch upon the possibility of strange and wondrous phenomena concealed
behind the outward façade of the mundane world. Machen’s most accomplished
weird tale, “The White People,” is also found here. Its account of a young
girl insidiously inculcated in the witch-cult, told entirely from her own
perspective as she jots down her thoughts and impressions in a diary, achieves
the pinnacle of clutching fear. A very different work is the short novel
A Fragment of Life, telling of how a seemingly ordinary couple rediscover
their sense of wonder in the world around them. The novel The Secret Glory
(written around 1907) is a discursive novel that searingly condemns the British
school system for destroying the imaginations of its pupils. The entire work—including
the final two chapters, first published only in a limited edition in 1992—is
included here.
Volume 3: 1911–1937
The third volume of Machen’s collected fiction begins with a tale, “The
Thousand and One Nights,” that has never before been reprinted. It continues
with a succession of tales that Machen wrote during and just after World
War I, a cataclysm that shook Europe to its foundations. The most famous
of these is “The Bowmen” (1914), a narrative of medieval soldiers coming
to the rescue of besieged British infantrymen in France was widely believed
to be a true account, in spite of Machen’s repeated protestations to the
contrary. Machen’s final war tale, the short novel The Terror (1916), is
an imperishable depiction of the revolt of animals against humanity’s rulership
of the earth. In the 1920s Machen resorted to humor and satire to convey
his dissatisfaction with the increasing secularization of his era, which
he felt was robbing the imagination of wonder and mystery. He also began
contributing to anthologies of original weird fiction edited by Cynthia Asquith
and others, producing several memorable tales as a result, including “The
Happy Children” and “The Islington Mystery.” Machen’s final novel, The Green
Round (1933), is a subtle tale of supernatural menace, narrated in the blandly
repertorial prose that Machen had developed in his later work. He then published
two final volumes of weird tales, The Cosy Room and The Children of the Pool
(both 1936), which contain many memorable tales, including “The Bright Boy”
and “N.”

Philip José Farmer had a life-long love affair with the pulps he
read in his youth. They influenced nearly everything he wrote, but in the
1970s he paid special tribute to them with several stories. Greatheart Silver
and Other Pulp Heroes collects these stories for the first time in hardcover!
This collection also features an introduction by college professor and pulp
historian, Garyn G. Roberts, Ph.D., and artwork (coming soon) by Keith Howell!
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Greatheart Silver
The Return of Greatheart Silver
Greatheart Silver in the First Command
The Grant Robeson Papers
Savage Shadow
Skinburn
The first three stories: “Greatheart Silver,” “The Return of Greatheart
Silver,” and “Greatheart Silver in the First Command,” originally appeared
in Byron Priess’ Weird Heroes series and have been collected before in the
paperback, Greatheart Silver. These stories are Philip José Farmer
at his most irreverent.
The next two items, “The Grant Robeson Papers,” and “Savage Shadow” also
appeared in Weird Heroes, and set up a fantastic premise that was never fulfilled
and will leave you wanting more.
The final story, “Skinburn” appeared in the Magazine of Fantasy & Science
Fiction and is the most scifi of these stories, while still giving a nod
to the pulps.
Here’s something new—based on your feedback and buying trends, we’re only
releasing this book in hardcover.
Greatheart Silver and Other Pulp Heroes will debut at FarmerCon XIV this
coming August, but if you preorder the book now, we’re offering an “Early
Bird Special” discount of $5 off! So you only $27 + shipping for this fascinating
collection of Farmer paying homage to many of his literary heroes!

OLD BONES (Nora Kelly) - Now available!
by Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child
The first in the groundbreaking Nora Kelly
series from #1 bestselling authors Preston & Child blends the legend
of the Donner party with a riveting suspense tale, taking the dynamic duo's
work to new heights.
Nora Kelly, a young but successful curator with a series of important excavations
already under her belt, is approached by the handsome Historian, Guy Porter,
to lead an expedition unlike any other. Guy tells his story--one involving
the ill-fated Donner Party, who became permanently lodged in the American
consciousness in the winter of 1847, when the first skeletonized survivors
of the party stumbled out of the California mountains, replete with tales
of courage, resourcefulness, bad luck, murder, barbarism--and, finally, starvation
and cannibalism.
Captivated by the Donner Party, Nora agrees and they venture into the Sierra
Nevada in search of the camp. Quickly, they learn that the discovery of the
missing starvation camp is just the tip of the iceberg--and that the real
truth behind those long-dead pioneers is not only far more complex and surprising
than they could have imagined...but it is one that puts them both in mortal
danger from a very real, present-day threat in which the search for the lost
party, and its fabled fortune in gold, are merely means to a horrifying end.

George Vanderburgh has been named the winner of the 2019 Munsey Award.
Nominated by the general pulp community, George was selected by previous
winners of the Lamont, Munsey, and Rusty Awards. The award is a fine art
print created by David Saunders and published by Dan Zimmer of The Illustrated
Press. It is presented annually to an individual or institution that has
bettered the pulp community. Bill Lampkin — winner of the 2018 Munsey Award
— presented this year’s award.
Our 2019 Munsey Award winner, GEORGE VANDERBURGH has published over 600
books through his Battered Silicon Dispatch Box, many of them directly related
to the pulps. He was largely responsible for finally getting all of Fred
Davis’ classic Moon Man stories back into print. And what about his Peter
the Brazen series, his five volumes featuring the work of Seabury Quinn,
THE COMPLEAT ADVENTURES OF THE PARK AVENUE HUNT CLUB, his Green Ghost set,
THE COMPLEAT SAGA OF JOHN SOLOMON, THE ADVENTURES OF THE GOLDEN AMAZON, THE
COMPLEAT ADVENTURES OF THE SUICIDE SQUAD, and others? He has also given us
numerous collections of detective fiction, including volumes featuring the
Thinking Machine, Dr. Thorndyke, and Martin Hewitt. Looking at his website,
his future plans include several books reprinting pulp authors who have been
unjustly forgotten. Along with the late Robert Weinberg, George served as
the co-editor of Arkham House Publishers until the death of April Derleth.
A regular attendee of pulp conventions, George has helped both longtime and
new fans to collect the tales of some of the most fantastic heroes from the
pulps. At this year’s PulpFest, George was part of our presentation, “The
Game’s Afoot: Sherlock Holmes and the Pulps.”
Congratulations to George for this most deserved award.

The Spider #108 Audiobook
Hell Rolls on the Highways!
by Norvell W. Page writing as Grant Stockbridge
Read by Nick Santa Maria
Now available!
The very structure of our war effort was threatened. Great
cargo laden trailer-trucks and mammoth, passenger-filled busses were crashing
mysteriously to flaming destruction on our highways! . . . Read how Richard
Wentworth, in the sinister robes of the Spider, challenges a mighty crime
combine designed to wreck the nation’s overland transport! Read of the Evangelist,
who swore to consign the Spider’s soul to hell! And of Kalimumtaz, Hindu
tigress in whose pagan hand rested the fate of Wentworth’s every ally — while
he himself plunged down a mountain in a fiery coffin!
|
|
The Spider stories are all about action, emotional intensity, and pacing.
Wentworth himself is strongly emotional, plumbing the thrills of victory
as readily, and as deeply, as the depths of despair during his escapades.
His long-suffering fiancée, Nita van Sloan, is a worthy character
in her own right, though frequently relegated to the traditional role of
hostage-bait. As additional exotic spice, Wentworth maintains a Sikh manservant/warrior
companion, Ram Singh, as well as chauffeur Ronald Jackson, the sergeant from
his old army days. Rounding out the cast of characters is Commissioner of
Police Stanley Kirkpatrick, Wentworth’s staunch friend and the Spider’s greatest
adversary.
Once more,the incomparable Nick Santa Maria reads another thrilling Spider
exploit. Hell Rolls on the Highways! originally published in The Spider magazine,
September, 1942.

Total Pulp Experience. These
exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading
as an eBook and features every story, every editorial, and every column of
the original pulp magazine.
The Lone Ranger rides again! Return with us to the old west, where
one masked man and his faithful companion fought for justice. Four years
after The Lone Ranger's broadcast debut, the popularity of the thrice-weekly
radio series, prompted a short-lived series of pulp magazine stories. Trojan
Publishing, which was also responsible for such pulp titles as Dan Turner,
Hollywood Detective; Private Detective Stories and Spicy Detective Stories
bought the magazine rights in 1937, and released the first issue of The Lone
Ranger Magazine dated April 1937. After eight monthly issues, the final issue
of the magazine was dated November 1937. The Lone Ranger returns in these
vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.

The first three jackets are all reconstructed using scans of the
original paintings for those covers.
THE WAR CHIEF alternate is based on art by noted western artist Maynard
Dixon and you can read more about it here.
Please take a moment to read the four-page article about the publishing of THE
WAR CHIEF and why it meant so much to Ed Burroughs. I think you’ll be interested
to find out that the book was one of the most well-researched novels he ever
wrote (besides I AM A BARBARIAN), and, considering its point of view and
many of the statements about white settlers, the US Army and the reasons
for the Apache’s explicit savagery, certainly his most controversial.
