โฆ Synopsis
The pulp magazines of the early to mid 20th Century are often "politically incorrect" by modern standards. However, the "Spicy" magazinesโ Spicy-Adventure Stories, Spicy Mystery, Spicy Western , etc.โwere politically incorrect by their own contemporary standards as well. With the occasional passing glimpse of a creamy-smooth thigh (or other womanly part!), and often filled with sexism, racism, and over-the-top plots and language, they nevertheless manage to titillate with more innuendo than anything else. If you find such things offensive, this is definitely not the right Megapack for you. But if you enjoy the occasional stroll down the back alleys of pulp publishing, here's a walk on the seamy side of the 1930s! Included are:
THE SHANGHAI JESTER by Robert Leslie Bellem
BLACK MURDER by Carl Moore
SUEZ SOUVENIR by Jerome Hyams
THE HOUSE OF WEIRD SLEEP by Charles R. Allen
CAVE OF THE CRISS-CROSS KNIVES by C.C. Spruce
HOT BLOOD by Arthur Wallace...
