Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Ed. From Publisher's Weekly:<br /><br />In this valentine to his subject, business writer Thomas (Common Sense Management) improves upon Audrey Parente's earlier, episodic Cave bio, Pulpman's Odyssey (1988), offering a more rounded portrait of the personal and professional life of living legend Hugh B. Cave. Still active at age 94, Cave has published more than 1,000 works of fiction across nine decades. In the 1920s and '30s, the heyday of the pulp magazines, he achieved renown as a fiction factory who could turn out memorable stories speedily for virtually any genre, though weird tales and crime thrillers were his specialty. During WWII, he wrote nonfiction books on war themes that were so well reviewed the Navy helped keep him from the draft. He was one of the few pulpsters to successfully migrate to The Saturday Evening Post and other slick magazines. Where possible Thomas lets Cave tell the story himself, in verbatim passages that reveal Cave to be an engaging conversationalist who can make penny-a-word pulpsmithing and 18-hour days at the typewriter seem exciting. Thomas's own attempts to spruce up some of Cave's biographical details in occasional passages meant to read like story excerpts seem lackluster by comparison. Though short on penetrating analysis, the book shows Cave to be a dedicated and diligent writer whose hard work ethic and irrepressible imagination has enriched the reading experiences of several generations of readers.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Set in an alternate Victorian London, where Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are not just fictional characters, Basil Copper's <i>Necropolis</i> (1980) is a tale of mystery and intrigue worthy of Arthur Conan Doyle or Wilkie Collins.<br /><br />Private detective Clyde Beatty, a rival of the great Holmes, has been hired by the lovely Angela Meredith to inquire into her father's suspicious death. As Beatty's investigation unfolds, the danger intensifies: more murders ensue, and attempts are made on his life. It is clear there is more to Mr. Meredith's death than meets the eye, and it may have something to do with the brazen robbery of a fortune in gold bullion. The clues lead Beatty to the eerie Brookwood Cemetery, where fatal secrets lie hidden in the catacombs beneath a city of the dead.<br /><br />This edition of Copper's chilling Victorian Gothic mystery is the first in more than three decades and includes the original illustrations by Stephen E. Fabian and a new introduction by Stephen Jones.
