I'm working on an article on colonialism in the pulps and reading a lot of Talbot Mundy at the moment -- King of the Khyber Rifles, the Jimgrim stories, etc.

 

 

So ... a couple of years ago I tried one of the Jimgrims but couldn't get into it. In your assessment, is it time I tried it again?

Well, I've just started the Jimgrims (with JG and Allah's Peace) so I'm not sure if I really have an opinion on them yet. I've always enjoyed King of the Khyber Rifles though. If you haven't read that I would recommend it. It takes place in the same shared universe as the Jimgrim and other Yasmini stories.

 

I'm also planning on reading some of L. Patrick Greene's stories of "The Major."

The first 9 issues of Fantastic Adventures were bed-sheet sized and had great front and back covers. Here's 7 of them. :)

 

Fantastic Adventures

Vol 1 No 1, May 1939

That back cover looks familiar...
