Book Description

Publication Date: February 11, 2000

Volume Four includes: The Drums of Fu Manchu: The sound of the drums carries a warning to fourteen world leaders who stand in the way of Fu Manchu s desire for world domination: surrender to his schemes, or die at the hands of his secret army. Even Nayland Smith has been marked for death by the beating of the drums... Shadow of Fu Manchu: The devil doctor plots to control the greatest weapon ever created a weapon which dwarfs the power of the atomic bomb and which Nayland Smith must, at all costs, keep from falling into the hands of the most dangerous man in the world. Emperor Fu Manchu: No one in the Western world could be sure what lay behind the Bamboo Curtain, in the remote province of Szechuan. Only Nayland Smith suspects that the mysterious Master whom it hides, the true power behind Communist China, is in fact his old enemy, in a new disguise. His young undercover agent, Tony McKay, must enter Fu Manchu s domain to penetrate the veil of secrecy.

This review is from: The Fu Manchu Omnibus: Volume 4 (Paperback)

Volume 4 contains The Drums of Fu Manchu, Shadow of Fu Manchu and Emporor Fu Manchu. It's been so long since these were in print so grab them while you can. The news is that Allison & Busby don't plan on reprinting them soon. These Books are racist, politically incorrect and loads of fun! Miss them at your peril!

This review is from: The Fu Manchu Omnibus: Volume 4 (Paperback)

I was thrilled to death to find these titles in print--although I regret I didn't get the entire series while they were still available. Wonderful, wonderful books, many of which haven't been printed in years; now I want the rest of them!

I should mention that my copy had an AWFUL typo in it--about 3 paragraphs of the first book, inserted incorrectly into the second book. But considering these titles are virtually unavailable anywhere else, I was still happy with my purchase.
