Praise for Retro Pulp Tales
David Pitt of Booklist shed his kindly eye on Retro Pulp Tales, and we’re most pleased with the results: “The movie Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow was contemporary pulp fiction that felt as though it was made decades ago. So, too, are the stories in this exciting new collection of “retro pulp.” The contributors, including F. Paul Wilson and Bill Crider, were asked to write a story that could have appeared in the pulps, and they have succeeded spectacularly. The first story, for example, James Reasoner’s “Devil Wings over France,” catapults the reader back to an era when thrillers and speculative fiction coexisted happily. These aren’t parodies or even homages. They’re straight-up pulp fiction, energetically written and remarkably faithful to the genre.”
