"Some of Price's stories aroused controversy; "The Stranger from Kurdistan" (1925) , a story which featured a dialogue between Christ and Satan, was criticised by some readers as blasphemous but proved popular with Weird Tales readers. (Lovecraft professed to find it especially powerful). "The Infidel's Daughter" (1927) , a satire on the Ku Klux Klan, also angered some Southern readers, but Wright defended the story. Price worked in a range of popular genres—including science fiction, horror, crime, and fantasy—but he was best known for adventure stories with Oriental settings and atmosphere. Price also contributed to Farnsworth Wright's short-lived magazine The Magic Carpet (1930–34) , along with Kline, Howard, Smith, and other Weird Tales regulars. " (from Wikipedia); Signed by Author.
