The Best of Weird Tales 1923 edition

Publisher Marketing: Weird Tales has always been the most popular and sought-after of all pulp magazines. Its mix of exotic fantasy, horror, science fiction, suspense, and the just plain indescribable has enthralled generations of readers throughout the world. Collected here are 13 of the best short stories published in Weird Tales' first year of publication, 1923 -- classics by many who would later play an integral part in the Unique Magazine, such as H. P. Lovecraft, Frank Owen, and Farnsworth Wright. Contributor Bio:  Kaye, Marvin Marvin Kaye (b. 1938) is the author of more than forty books. Born in Philadelphia, he attended college at the University of Pennsylvania, graduating with advanced degrees in theater and English literature. After reporting for the national newspaper "Grit" for several years, he moved to New York City and found work in publishing. He published his first nonfiction book, "The Histrionic Holmes", in 1971, and followed it with the mystery novel "A Lively Game of Death" (1972), which introduced sleuthing public relations agent Hilary Quayle, Kaye's most famous character. In addition to five Quayle novels, Kaye has written and edited dozens of works of fiction and nonfiction. He is also one of the founders of the Open Book, New York City's oldest continuously operating reading theater. In 2010, the theater produced Kaye's "Mister Jack", a comedy about Don Juan. Before his retirement, Kaye taught creative writing at New York University, and regularly performed improvised comedy at the Jekyll & Hyde Club. Contributor Bio:  Betancourt, John Gregory John Gregory Betancourt is a bestselling author with several Star Trek novels to his credit including Voyager: Incident at Arbuk and Deep Space Nine: Heart of the Warrior.
