We are delighted to present our second collection of Talmage Powell mystery short stories! Powell (1920-2000) was one of the all-time great mystery writers of the pulp magazines (and later the digest mystery magazines). He claimed to have written more than 500 short stories, and we have no reason to doubt him -- we are working on a bibliography of his work and have documented 373 magazine stories so far...and who knows how many are out there under pseudonyms or buried in obscure magazines? He wrote his first novel, The Smasher, in 1959. He went on to pen 11 more novels under his own name, 4 as "Ellery Queen," and 2 novelizations of the hit TV series Mission: Impossible. Clearly, though, short stories were his first love. Included here are 20 more of his best crime tales, including: THE VITAL ELEMENT PSYCHO-SYMPTOMS STRANGER'S GIFT THE WAY OUT IN THE HOUSE OF RATS TO SPARE A LIFE THE INSPIRATION EASY MARK GATOR BAIT THE COMMUNE THE DELICATE VICTIM TRIAL RUN THE TIP-OFF THE ULTIMATE PREY NEW NEIGHBOR TILL DEATH DO NOT US PART HOPE CHEST THE HOLDUP A WAY WITH A WILL THE BEACON If you enjoy this book, search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press Megapack" to see the 240+ other entries in the series, covering mysteries, science fiction, fantasy, westerns, classics, adventure stories, and much, much more!
This volume contains the complete works (poetry and fiction) of Khalil Gibran. Khalil Gibran was a Lebanese-American writer, poet and visual artist, also considered a philosopher although he himself rejected this title in his lifetime. He is best known as the author of The Prophet, which was first published in the United States in 1923 and is one of the best-selling books of all time, having been translated into more than 100 languages. As worded by Suheil Bushrui and Joe Jenkins, Gibran's life has been described as one "often caught between Nietzschean rebellion, Blakean pantheism and Sufi mysticism." Gibran discussed "such themes as religion, justice, free will, science, love, happiness, the soul, the body, and death" in his writings, which were "characterized by innovation breaking with forms of the past, by symbolism, an undying love for his native land, and a sentimental, melancholic yet often oratorical style." He explored literary forms as diverse as "poetry, parables, fragments of conversation, short stories, fables, political essays, letters, and aphorisms." Salma Khadra Jayyusi has called him "the single most important influence on Arabic poetry and literature during the first half of [the twentieth] century", and he is still celebrated as a literary hero in Lebanon.
