Creative Mythographers On the Move

This the first in an ongoing series of posts highlighting the literary exploits of the contributors to Myths for the Modern Age: Philip José Farmer's Wold Newton Universe (and diverse associates who've also more than earned the sobriquet "creative mythographer").

First up is Rick Lai's
Chronology of Shadows: A Timeline of The Shadow's Exploits.

"
For the first time in print, Rick Lai's Chronology of Shadows (his timeline of the pulp character The Shadow) has been updated & assembled in one easy-to-read volume."

Rick has
read all The Shadow pulp novels and has done an immense amount of research. I'm eagerly awaiting the companion volume which will cover Doc Savage.

Order from Amazon.com.

I got that volume. While I have other books on the Shadow (Duende History and Scrapbook), this one was still enjoyable.

I have his Doc chronology that was published by Aces (and a later edition on CD). I look forward to a new edition from Altus Press.
