Özet

Seabury Quinn's short stories were featured in well more than half of the pulp magazine Weird Tales' original publication run.

His most famous character, the supernatural French detective Dr. Jules de Grandin, investigated cases involving monsters, devil worshippers, serial killers, and spirits from beyond the grave, often set in the small town of Harrisonville, New Jersey. In de Grandin there are familiar shades of both Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot, and alongside his assistant, Dr. Samuel Trowbridge, de Grandin's knack for solving mysteries - and his outbursts of peculiar French-isms (grand Dieu!) - captivated for nearly three decades.

Collected for the first time in trade editions, The Complete Tales of Jules de Grandin presents all 93 published works featuring the supernatural detective. Presented in chronological order over five volumes, this is the definitive collection of an iconic pulp hero.

No Nobel prizes for literature will be awarded here but if you just want a number of short entertaining listens then this collection delivers. The only downside is that the narrator is completely incapable of doing foreign accents which is painful given that the protagonist is supposed to be French. His accent ranges between Jamaica and Newcastle, occassionally stopping for a brief visit to Scotland. In any other book it would be intolerable, but given the pulp fiction flavour it adds a "so bad it's good" touch.

Pulp fiction at it finest

Fun short simple stories. Nothing here is exceptional but enjoyable. Some of the solutions are flawed and the Dr Watson character seems rather more stupid than he should be refusing to believe in ghosts and the supernatural even after encountering them multiple times. But still an enjoyable series of stories.

I thought these adventures were not bad, a bit strange in places, I don't think I would get the second book.

the explanations where a bit off. Sometimes you expect a creature and the horror gets going then it just stops.

Great pulp horror
