5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Read!,
This review is from: Strange Tales (Paperback)
Strange Tales #9 is a real pleasure and a treat! It largely lives up to its hype of being the spiritual successor of the original magazine, which once vied with the famous Weird Tales for readers. Alas, Strange Tales was murdered by the Great Depression in 1932. The stories in this new issue, with the weirdly sumptuous cover illustration by Jason Van Hollander, are led by two past master of fantasy, the late Hugh B. Cave, and the late L. Sprague de Camp. These stories do not disappoint! Cave's tale "From the Pits of Elder Blasphemy" is certainly worthy of the original 1930s magazine. Indeed, each and every story is so worthy. Charles Garofalo takes us on a junket to the gates of hell, J.J. Travis take a Depression Era train ride with a demigod, Friday Jones show us a gruesome, grizzly future when the inexpert fool with demonic forces, and Michael Fantina presents us with a seductive and deadly sorceress who is half human and half spider. Well worth the time and money!
