With the holiday/Christmas season upon us, I wish to toot my own horn and remind folks of three Airship 27 offerings I contributed to (each illustrated in the good, ol' pulp tradition). I do believe they'll make swell gifts for friends and family.
There's my latest, The Persona, Vol 3: Silver Skin, wherein my New Pulp hero, Michael Mansford, aka the Persona, and his betrothed, Stacey Standish, crash in the Amazon and encounter a silver-skinned specter who hopes to transform Earth to his insidious liking.
On the short-story side, The Phantom Detective, Vol 3 contains my yarn, "The Phantom of the Garage," which pits the titular, masked vigilante, Richard Curtis Van Sloan, against a disfigured kingpin, who's putting the squeeze on Sloan's WWI buddy, Jerry Lannigan. (This swell volume also contains top-notch tales by Carson Demmans, Michael Black and Fred Adams Jr.)
Last but not least, there's an "oldie but goodie," which has seen a pleasing resurgence in recent months: my novella, The Hyde Seed. In this one, a former boxer, Pepe Rodriguez, must battle a cerebral demon that takes on a life of its own. The Hyde Seed smacks of The Twilight Zone's "The Big Tall Wish" and "Steel," as well Rocky, The Set-Up, Body and Soul and The Champ.
All three volumes can be purchased through Amazon, with quick deliveries assured; so stuff a little Airship 27 in your stockings this holiday season and rejoice, my friends ... rejoice! The New Pulp phenomenon is stronger than ever!
