Book Promotion: Exciting Pulp Tales

 Book Promotions. I’m going to be busy the next few days promoting some of my books. I will also be looking for book reviewers. If you have a Blog and can post reviews there and elsewhere, especially Amazon, and would like to read one of the books I’m promoting please let me know. I need reviews. I may only have pdf copies of these books, though. My good friend Barry Lancet is also looking for book reviewers, and he’s expecting TOKYO KILL, his third Jim Brodie thriller in early 2016, but will have pre-published copies available for reviews now. But remember, you must have a Blog for your reviews, and be able to post them on Amazon and elsewhere.

EXCITING PULP TALES, a short story collection by Tom Johnson. The exciting sequel to Tom’s 2010 anthology, THE PULP DETECTIVES, this new collection brings you ten more all-new stories featuring classic pulp heroes such as The Angel, The Green Ghost, The Cobra, The Crimson Mask, Gentle Jones, The Purple Scar, Funny Face, Mr. Death, The Jungle Queen, and Ki-Gor the Jungle Lord. Published by ALTUS PRESS in 2011, this massive book contains 384 pages of fast pulp action. If you haven’t picked up this volume yet, do so today (available in pdf for reviews).

Tom's Short Story Collections


These Short Story collections are in the tradition of the classic fiction stories that appeared in the heyday of the pulp magazines; new stories of original characters, as well as new characters in contemporary and historical settings. Although I do take a few liberties with the original characters, I try to keep them true to their origins. For the fan of those great action heroes, as well as the new fan, these stories will give the reader a sampling of the old style while not lacking in action and excitement. As a long time fan and collector, I have complete runs of the major character magazines, and have read them all, so I am truly familiar with the characters I write. I am not just a fan of Doc Savage, and not just a fan of The Shadow, but I am a fan of them all. And I hope that comes through to the reader as s/he reads the following short story collections.
