Short Story Collections
These Short Story collections are in the tradition of the
classic fiction stories that appeared in the heyday of the pulp magazines; new
stories of original characters, as well as new characters in contemporary and
historical settings. Although I do take a few liberties with the original
characters, I try to keep them true to their origins. For the fan of those
great action heroes, as well as the new fan, these stories will give the reader
a sampling of the old style while not lacking in action and excitement. As a
long time fan and collector, I have complete runs of the major character
magazines, and have read them all, so I am truly familiar with the characters I
write. I am not just a fan of Doc Savage, and not just a fan of The Shadow, but
I am a fan of them all. And I hope that comes through to the reader as s/he
reads the following short story collections.
