With his colleagues and friends - adventure-seeking inventor Sir Miles Hardwick, and a demon trapped in human form - Darian must traverse the poisonous London fog to expose the conspiracy behind the London Turbines. What mysteries will Darian unearth in his determined search, and how many women will his philandering ways take advantage of ...? Welcome to the Misadventures of Cyrus Darian: alchemist, hedonist, philanderer and anti-hero.
Classic pulp crime thrillers from the 1940s and 1950s. In their time, the Hank Janson novels, with their sleazy covers and no-holds-barred tales, were a guilty pleasure for millions of readers, but incurred the wrath of the establishment! This anthology of ultra-rarities reprints the first three Hank Janson novellas - When Dames Get Tough, Scarred Faces and Kitty Takes The Rap - which initially appeared in 1946 over two volumes (with the latter two collected together under the Scarred Faces title). Literally only a handful of copies of the original editions now survive. Also included in this Telos anthology, as a bonus, are two Hank Janson short stories from the scarce Underworld magazine.
Lee Shelton is a man with a tragic past and a deeply troubled present. Framed for a murder he didn't commit, forced to kidnap and chain up a beautiful passer-by - who turns out to be a millionairess - in order to avoid capture, and with a broken hypodermic needle buried in his festering arm, he finds events conspiring against him. Will he be able to get out from under all these problems, or is a lengthy prison sentence - or even death - what fate has in store for him? This Telos edition of Frails Can Be So Tough reinstates the previously-unpublished original cover artwork by Reginald Heade, which was censored when the novel first appeared in 1951. Includes an introduction by pulp historian and writer Steve Holland.
Murder, blackmail, a femme fatale and switched identities ... just everyday problems for Hank Janson. With their erotic pin-up covers and hardboiled crime tales, the Hank Janson pulp paperback novels were a British publishing sensation in the 1940s and 1950s, selling millions of copies to readers craving escapism from post-war austerity. Prosecutions under Britain's then-harsh obscenity laws dealt them a severe blow, however, and today they are highly sought-after by collectors. This Telos edition of Skirts Bring Me Sorrow reinstates the previously-unpublished original cover artwork by Reginald Heade, which was censored when the novel first appeared in 1951. Includes an introduction by pulp historian and writer Steve Holland.
