Learn from one of the early Masters from the pulp magazine Golden Years. H. Bedford Jones routinely wrote over a million words per year and made the equivalent of possibly a 7-figure income in today's money. All by writing and submitting stories to publishers. Yet he also wrote the handbook for high-speed, high-quality writing production that anyone can follow. His ""This Fiction Business"" has been combined with two of his finest novels so you can hear from the ""King of Pulps"" not only how he did it, but read the results for yourself. Per Bedford-Jones: ""This book is not to be regarded as tyro. Under his own and assumed an authority on story-writing; by no means should it be read by anyone who aspires to literature, for, like Socrates, it will assuredly corrupt them and lead them into the worship of strange gods. It is destined only for those who desire to make a living by writing stories, in the hope that it may be of some benefit to them."" Get Your Copy Now.

This short novel takes place in French Indo-China, better known to us today as Vietnam. This was during the era when Saigon was called the Paris of the East, and all the characters who appear are either French or American. Much of the action takes place on a privately-owned island off the coast, as a mysterious American adventurer and possible criminal named Smith is plunged into a plot full of intrigue, revenge, and murder. The crooked mastermind known as Monsieur the Devil, sentenced to life in prison, escapes and seeks revenge on the man responsible for putting him there, who happens to live on that private island with--wouldn't you know it--his beautiful daughter. Along the way there's a lot of scheming, a few well-done action scenes, and a really suspenseful ending.
