It's 1933 and pulp writer Lester Dent has created a new hero who
uses gadgets to solve mysteries and fight crime. No, it's not Doc
Savage, but Lee Nace, the Blond Adder This volume collects for the
first time all five Lee Nace adventures from the pages of Ten
Detective Aces. The majority of these have not seen the light of
day since their original publication nearly 80 years ago We've gone
back to the original manuscripts to restore deleted passages and
also included Lester Dent's original character Bible for the Blond
Adder series. Rounded out by an all-new introduction by pulp
historian Will Murray, it's the must-own pulp publication of the
year.

dead, eyes turned an unseeing ivory by the masked mastermind known
as... White Eyes. As police riot guns and gangland Tommy-guns turn
New York City's winter snows scarlet, Doc Savage, man of mystery,
giant of bronze, discovers that the mysterious plague is part of an

Doc Savage. Called to the sleepy farm town of La Plata, Missouri,
the Man of Bronze plunges into the enigma of the vanishing
Victorian house. Is it haunted? Is it even real? Can Doc solve the
mystery--or will he be sucked into the unknown vortex into which it
disappears? From his supersecret Crime College to a sinister island
in the Great Lakes, Doc Savage and his brilliant team race to
assemble the most baffling webwork of Halloween horrors ever
encountered. For many weird mysteries beyond human ken converge in
the Missouri wilderness in this, the wildest Doc Savage adventure

Hornetta Hale? Why does she need to rent Doc's private submarine?
And who is so determined to eliminate her that they destroy Doc
Savage's skyscraper headquarters in the process? From Manhattan
Island to the Caribbean Sea, Doc and his fighting crew chase the
most violent gang of criminals they have ever encountered in a
desperate race to unlock the secret of Phantom Lagoon. Or are they
more than mere criminals?
