Hard Cover. Condición: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition. First edition. Minor wear to corners, remainder mark on top edge. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1999 Hard Cover. 415 pp. A collection of nineteen stories of revenge, betrayal, and treachery from the International Association of Crime Writers and some of the world's most well-known authors. There are assassins and seducers, stolen plans, and intricate games of cat and mouse. The universal rule, however, is that no one gets to write their memoirs. 'A memorable collection of 16 stories, edited with an insightful introduction by the accomplished Smith, who also recently won the Hammett Prize from the International Association of Crime Writers for his novel Rose. The group of distinguished, well-published, and, in most cases, well-known authors represented here includes the likes of Mark Twain, Ambrose Bierce, and Maupassant, going on to John D. MacDonald, John Jakes, John Lutz, Jean-Hugues Oppel, and Michael Collins. Just as varied as the talent, of course, are the adventures and their settings: the Adirondacks during the Reagan-period Cold War years; Los Angeles and the Tommy Dorsey swing era on the eve of the attack on Pearl Harbor; or Prussian-occupied Colombes, France, at the time of WWI, where Maupassant takes us fishing with two temporarily noncombatant foot soldiers. Mark Twain writes of a galloping case of what Smith describes as 'spy fever' during the Civil War, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's legendary crime sleuths, Holmes and Watson, lend their prodigious powers of detection to solving the puzzle of missing intelligence plans that in the wrong hands could threaten the British Admiralty. A timeless potpourri and hours of great reading in digestible portions for professional and amateur spy-meisters alike.' - Kirkus Reviews.…

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. From the dawn of the Silver Age of comics, issue No. 5 in the original run of Turok under the Dell publishing banner, appearing as a regular quarterly comic, with a publishing date of September-November 1956. This issue features the typical painted cover that stood Turok apart, and contains the graphic stories "The River of Fire" and "The Secret Place". Consisting of 32 newsprint pages plus covers, saddle-stitched, the publisher took the unusual step of continuing the second story onto the inside back cover (with no color). Condition: The front and back covers contain a number of minimal creases from handling, but edgewear is absent from both except at tips. Several short, thin horizontal creases extend from the spine on the front cover, due to binding stress. A newsdealer's date stamp in light blue ink appears in the "T" in "Turok". While light toning appears in the page margins, it is most noticeable on the edges of the inside front and back covers. Page tips are lightly rounded and white areas in the Juicy Fruit gum ad on the back cover have accumulated some light soiling. (See photos of covers.) Pages have browned at the edges but remain supple and firm. When the page edges are fanned, two small water stains appear on the lower right side. Cover and staples are tight and there's no spine roll. Conservatively graded VG+ (4.5), based on the grading standards in the 51st Edition of Overstreet (2021-2022), pp 212-215. Comes in an archival Mylar sleeve with archival backing board. Bob Correa. John Celardo (ilustrador). Softcover.…
