It has taken me 37 years to write this biography of author Robert
W. Chambers. Along the way, I wrote and published many articles
about him, but did not complete the biography until 2014. I got the
idea of writing it when I was 15, and the reason I got the idea is

Despite his fame and thorough integration in New York high society,
very little was written about him during his lifetime. This volume
contains the Expanded Edition of the biography, Robert W. Chambers:
Maker of Moons, as well as the collection of articles, originally
titled, Robert W. Chambers: In Search of the Unknown Author of The
King in Yellow.

these are very early stories. The earliest, I believe, is
Counterterrorist. Yes, the main character s name is Jack, but it
was written many years decades before Jack Bauer, counterterrorist,
made it to TV in 24. That should be obvious, but I thought I d
mention it. Just try to enjoy the stories.
Just like me to never have any money when the end of the world
comes, thought Martin Fahy as he walked through the bitter,
ceaseless rain. He laughed slightly and wondered what he was going
to do now. Sure, he had been the one who always knew The End was
coming soon, but he just couldn t convince anyone else. He wasn t a
religious fanatic or anything and his predictions of the coming
doom had nothing to do with apocalyptic visions or cultist beliefs.
It was based largely on his continual observation of scientific
predictions. And now, it all was happening. Fahy realized what he d
always said was his prime philosophy still was true: The only way
out is through
