| ABDULLAH, ACHMED & DARRELL SCHWEITZER (INTRODUCTION), FEAR AND OTHER STORIES FROM THE PULPS. USA Wildside Press 2005 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Size: 8vo - over 7テつセ" - 9テつセ" tall Fine 228pp. Achmed Abdullah's name was once synonymous with adventure. He published dozens of novels and hundreds of short stories in the pulp magazines of the early 20th century, thrilling millions of readers throughout the world. He wrote with authority about exotic peoples and places because he had lived a life filled with adventure, serving in the British army and travelling extensively to exotic locales before settling down to a literary career. Here is the first new book of Adbullah's stories in almost seventy years, sampling a broad range of his work. 'A Charmed Life' tells of one life-changing night in India, when a white man glimpses and beautiful woman in danger and acts to rescue her. 'Framed at the Benefactor's Club' is a fascinating, intricately plotted mystery set in Manhattan. 'The Yellow Wife' is a chilling look at Chinese life in Chinatown. 'Bismallah!' is a light adventure in Africa, as crooked traders try to put a successful rival company out of business. 'Light' is a surprisingly effective supernatural tale. 'A Yarkand Survey' tells the story of a corrupt governor who is sent on a survey mission that might cost him his life -- if he isn't careful! And 'Fear' is the tale of two thieving white men in Africa and the weird fates that awaited them. Ranging from mystery to adventure to outright horror, from the streets of New York to the rooftops of Calcutta, from London's Chinatown to the jungles of Africa, here are tales of men caught up by plots and mysteries beyond their wildest imaginings! Features a new introduction by pulp scholar Darrell Schweitzer. USD 16.00 [Appr.: EURO 11 | £UK 9.75 | JP・ 1423] Book number: 090977 Click here to order or inquire at Mythos Books. | ||

MCDO, AS IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN - A COLLECTION OF SHERLOCKIAN PARODIES FROM UNLIKELY SOURCES. Canada Calabash Press 1998 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Size: 8vo - over 7セ" - 9セ" tall Fine 179pp. Ellery Queen once described the difference between pastiche and parody: 'A pastiche is a serious and sincere imitation in the exact manner of the original author. But writers of parodies, which are humorous or satirical take-offs, have no such reverent scruples. They usually strive for the weirdest possible distortions, and many ingenious travesties have been conceived. As It Might Have Been is all about those distortions and ingenious travesties: the collection brings together some thirty-eight examples, most of which have not seen the light of day since their first publication in obscure magazines, some dating as far back as 1893. The reader will encounter Herlock Sholmes, Sheer Luck, Padlock Jones, Hemlock Coombs, and many others, including a delightful parody of a Conan Doyle Round the Red Lamp story. But all of these pieces were written with one character in mind - the never to be forgotten Sherlock Holmes. As such, they may be regarded as a tribute to the creator and the created. Join us then, as Sherlock Holmes (or whichever character he appears to be at the time) investigates 'The Great Security Bank Mystery', 'The Reigate Road Murder', 'The Marischaal Manor Mystery', 'The Omnibus Murder', and a host of other unusual cases. This splendid collection has been gathered for our pleasure by Robert Adey, whose leisure hours, as will be apparent, are spent collecting and trawling through long-forgotten magazines and periodicals.

| ADRIAN, JACK (EDITOR) TOM GALLON, NEIL GOW, ERIC AMBROSE, W. J. MAKIN, DONALD SHOUBRIDGE, LAURENCE MEYNELL, THE 1999 ASH-TREE PRESS ANNUAL MACABRE. Canada Ash-Tree Press 1999 First Edition Private Press Hard Cover Size: 8vo - over 7ツセ" - 9ツセ" tall Fine/Fine/J Fine 72pp. Introduction by Jack Adrian. The House That Was Lost by Tom Gallon / Tight and Loose by Neil Gow / The Man Who Was Tomorrow by Eric Ambrose / Newsreel by W. J. Makin / Time-Piece by Donald Shoubridge / Last Act First by Laurence Meynell. Notes and Sources. The third of Ash-Tree's annual gatherings of rare macabre stories. This year, as at perhaps no other point in history, the focus is very much on 'time' as we prepare to turn the calendar over from one millennium to the next. The concept of time shifting, changing, distorting, playing tricks with hapless humans generally thought of as the preserve of science fiction and fantasy writers; but it plays a part in many a ghost story, too. Indeed, in his introduction, editor Jack Adrian argues that 'all, or at any rate most, ghost stories contain elements of time-distortion'. In these six stories - originally published between 1908 and 1940 - time, in all its shifting confusion, plays a part, blurring the lines between past and present, reality and illusion. The characters in these tales find themselves caught in a shadowy world in which time itself seems to have no meaning where acts from the past return to haunt the present, and where the shadow of what is yet to pass mocks those who would try to change it. Contents: Introduction by Jack Adrian; 'The House That Was Lost' by Tom Gallon; 'Tight and Loose' by Neil Gow; 'The Man Who Was Tomorrow' by Eric Ambrose; 'Newsreel' by W.J. Makin; 'Time-Piece' by Donald Shoubridge; 'Last Act First' by Laurence Meynell. Jacket art is by Rob Suggs. Limited to 500 copies.
