For Billy Jingo, living in Glennville is a dead end. His home next to the dump. His dead-end job. And then on Friday morning his whole world turned upside down... #Crime #Audio #Pulp #Readers #Listeners
The front cover of the paperback (artist unknown). It shows a scantily-clad white woman seemingly encased in a large cut gem. The tagline reads, "The great diamond flashed with the brilliance of hellfire—many had died to own it—all who owned it had died. Now it was hers…"
The back cover. It reads: The legendary diamond was bigger than a lover's heart, more dazzling than the fires of hell… Through the centuries men had sold their souls for it, women had given their bodies for it… For the man who stole it it meant freedom—a terrible, final freedom. For the girl in the shadow of the guillotine it was a dream of love and marriage—and the price she must pay for living. For the belle of New Orleans it was an insult to Southern womanhood, a threat to virtue no gentleman could fail to avenge. For the spy it was a gift of love—to the woman he meant to kill. And for all who possessed it it was fate, irresistible and evil. CORNELL WOOLRICH, whose suspense classics (The Bride Wore Black, The Phantom Lady, and many others) have held millions breathless through countless printings, is the acknowledged master of sudden terror. His recently published Beyond the Night (Avon) was hailed as "an original collection of six short truly gripping thrillers in the unexcelled Cornell Woolrich-William Irish manner" (Clark Kinnaird, in his syndicated Parade of Books column.) The Doom Stone, published here for the first time, is Woolrich at his hair-raising best.
The first page teaser. It reads: INDIA, 1757 From the great doors of the sacred temple, a man dashes into the torchlit night. In one hand he grasps a bloody dagger, in the other the fabulous diamond that will buy his freedom. Terror drives him into the jungle as the torches close in behind him—and ahead… PARIS, 1792 In the foul, dark dungeons of the Bastille, a beautiful young countess clutches the great gem that is her last, useless treasure and dreams of lost love. Tonight she must choose: her head to La Guillotine or her body to the coarse hands of Citizen Dunot. She rises, beckons the guard… NEW ORLEANS, 1871 Diamond Davey, with the city in his pocket, sends a jewel to a lady whose family he has ruined; a present, with strings attached, that is to come back to him wrapped in nightmares… TOKYO, 1941 East meets West in a tragic lovers' tryst, while a world gone mad mocks their passion. And in the great diamond the fires of hell flash brighter, as the curse claims two more lives…
Picked up a cheap copy of Cornell Woolrich's THE DOOM STONE today! Published in 1960 (so one of his later novels), it was an expansion/rewrite of his 1939 three-part serial, "The Eye of Doom" (as published in ARGOSY). I have yet to read either. #pulp
He is an unassuming man. But under that façade is the most respected man of his profession. Though you've never heard his name before you've read some of his best work. He is Nick D'Annuzio -- The Man of Blurb for Bantam's Doc Savage reprints

Leída en el tomo de la etapa Marvel original de Solomon Kane "Alas en la noche". Es uno de los relatos icónicos del personaje y está adaptado al cómic de forma fantástica con todo su salvajismo sangriento, su acción frenética y su mal rollo de puro malditismo. #SolomonKane #RobertEHoward #Pulp

OHotMU style page for a Wolverine-like character named Tasmanian Tiger. Again, there's too much text to fit in this space, but the gist of it is that he was born from an actual thylacine kept in captivity, was studied in an Australian lab for years until he escaped, became a Luchador in Mexico until a tragedy cut that short, went back to Australia to do special ops government work, then became a superhero in America, then returned to Australia after it got nuked in 1979. He's short, has healing powers, and an unhingable jaw.

The cover of my upcoming rerelease of Beulah Poynter's FIRES OF YOUTH, a romance novel from 1929. In an illustration by John V. Ranck (originally for a 1926 sheet music cover), a young white woman and a young white man are facing each other, holding hands and about to passionately kiss, while flames surround them. The color scheme is black, white (well, ivory), red, and grey.
FIRES OF YOUTH front cover finished! (Subject to tweaks, as always.)
I have some final little edits to make to the cover copy, and then there's no getting around it—I'll have to hunker down and write the intro. 😅 #pulp #romance #romancelandia

A doc savage paperback novel. On the cover, an adventurer in a tattered shirt leans back up against a rocky mound. He is looking behind him at the daylight sky and a bridge in the background.
Back of paperback novel with text that reads: To the world at large, Doc. Savage is a strange, mysterious figure of glistening bronze skin and golden eyes. To his amazing co-adven-turers-the five greatest brains ever assembled in one group—he is a man of superhuman strength and protean genius, whose lite is dedicated to the destruction of evil-doers. To his fans he is the greatest adventure hero of all time, whose fantastic exploits are unequaled for hair-raising thrills, breathtaking escapes and bloodcurdling excitement. UNNATURAL PHENOMENON The Roar Devil-he shook the earth. He stopped all sound. He had a vast organization of desperate criminals at his command. Now the good citizens of Powertown were terrorized.

A review of A Work of Human Hands: "Let me come right to the point. William Preston's Old Man pentalogy are some of the finest "Doc" stories ever written. This collection belongs on the shelf alongside the works of Lester Dent, Phillip Jose Farmer and Michael Chabon. It could also (theoretically) take up shelf space in and around that old secondhand copy of Augustine's Confessions, that you were forced to read back in college. Preston strikes just the right balance between nuanced characters, philosophical musings and a gaggle of outré threats. Oh, and while he's at it, Preston manages to delve into some of the enduring questions of the human condition (free will and the power of evil, anyone?). Is A Work of Human Hands an exercise of philosophical inquiry masquerading as mere pulp fiction? Has William Preston created a new genre (that of philosophical pulp)? Read it and find out...you'll be glad you did."
If this sounds like something you'd dig, the link is in the first comment. A Work of Human Hands collects my five stories from Asimov's Science Fiction about a real-life hero who becomes a pulp myth. (Also, that "bronze" skin is not from too much sun.) #FSF #pulp #Asimov's #shortstories

A doc savage paperback novel. On the cover, two men, one in a tattered shirt and the other wearing no shirt are posed as though they are getting ready to fistfight. Both men are in defensive stances.

To his amazing co-adven-turers-the five greatest brains ever assembled in one group—he is a man of superhuman strength and protean genius, whose life is dedicated to the destruction of evil-doers.

MENACE IN STEEL The events were bizarre. First, a millionaire industrialist vanished. Then, his workers broke out in red spots and went crazy. THE MAN OF BRONZE and his courageous crew sped to the scene of disaster to search for the perfidious plotter willing to gamble the minds and bodies of men to amass a vast fortune. Were they already too late?

Cover of Cavewoman "Extinction". It shows Meriem, the Cavewoman, wearing a leopard print bikini, surrounded and grabbed by tentacles. She has a knife in her right hand, ready to slash at them.
