Achmed Abdullah's name was once synonymous with adventure. He
published dozens of novels and hundreds of short stories in the
pulp magazines of the early 20th century, thrilling millions of
readers throughout the world. He wrote with authority about exotic
peoples and places because he had lived a life filled with
adventure, serving in the British army and travelling extensively
to exotic locales before settling down to a literary career. Here
is the first new book of Adbullah's stories in almost seventy
years, sampling a broad range of his work. "A Charmed Life" tells
of one life-changing night in India, when a white man glimpses a
beautiful woman in danger and acts to rescue her. "Framed at the
Benefactor's Club" is a fascinating, intricately plotted mystery
set in Manhattan. "The Yellow Wife" is a chilling look at Chinese
life in Chinatown. "Bismallah!" is a light adventure in Africa, as
crooked traders try to put a successful rival company out of
business. "Light" is a surprisingly effective supernatural tale. "A
Yarkand Survey" tells the story of a corrupt governor sent on a
survey mission that might cost him his life -- if he isn't careful!
And "Fear" is the tale of two thieving white men in Africa and the
weird fates that awaited them. Ranging from mystery to adventure to
outright horror, from the streets of New York to the rooftops of
Calcutta, from London's Chinatown to the jungles of Africa, here
are tales of men caught up by plots and mysteries beyond their
wildest imaginings! Features a new introduction by pulp scholar
Darrell Schweitzer.
