Pulp Winds Pulse Pounding Adventures in Fiction and Verse by Wm. Michael
Mott Introductions by Brad Steiger, Gerald W. Page and Walter Bosley -
PULP WINDS, the long-awaited collection of short fiction, verse, and
Forteana by Wm. Michael Mott, has been unleashed for mass
consumption! With introductions by Walter Bosley, Brad Steiger, and
Gerald W. Page, these tales will take you from the antediluvian world to
lost cities beneath the earth, onward to other planets around distant
stars, and even to the Dark Ages, the Old West and the High Seas. New
twists on mythos and madness are inter-meshed and presented in these
yarns of terror and adventure! Profusely illustrated, and reminiscent of
pulp fiction and verse of a bygone era, PULP WINDS is a literary
adventure of a type scarcely seen today! These literary gems are not in
the modern vein of politically correct, emasculated tales of slow pace
and boring introspection so common today, but are fast-paced,
pulse-pounding accounts of action, horror, love, hate and gore!
Presented in a large-format for easier reading and for viewing of the
artwork, the design is reminiscent of the pulp magazines of an earlier,
bygone era. Those of you familiar with Mott's non-fiction Fortean
research will find familiar themes from the realms of the unknown
interwoven into, through, and beneath these stories, like the currents
of a deep black subterranean river of mystery, glimpsed and occasionally
revealed in all its weirdness and terror, before plunging beneath the
surface again. Also included is an article on Fortean matters along the
lines of the research presented in Caverns, Cauldrons, and Concealed
Creatures, Mott's definitive non-fiction opus on high strangeness,
hidden beings, and real-life mysteries. Some of the stories and poems in
Pulp Winds have also appeared in Lost Continent Library Magazine,
Planetary Stories, and elsewhere, but have never been gathered together
into a single collection before now. If the reader finds occasional
hints of the Apocrypha, the Pseudepigrapha, the Book of Skelos, the
Eltdown Shards, the Necronomicon, and yes, even the mad musings of the
Shaver Mystery in these tales... It is no mere happenstance! BLOOD AND
THUNDER has returned to the literary realm. PULP WINDS will satisfy your
cravings for fast-paced, haunting adventures across time and space!
