Pierre d'Artois Occult Detective and Associates Megapack (Wildside Press, 2017)
In their affordable 'Megapack' range for Kindle, Wildside Press is offering this collection of 20 occult detective tales. The blurb mentions the d'Artois stories being from Weird Tales, though as I am not familiar with the character, I am unsure how many feature d'Artois, nor if all were published in Weird Tales. The contents are:
INTRODUCTION, by Alexander Kreitner
THE WORD OF SANTIAGO
THE PEACOCK'S SHADOW
THE BRIDE OF THE PEACOCK
THE RETURN OF BALKIS
LORD OF THE FOURTH AXIS
THE DEVIL'S CRYPT
SATAN'S GARDEN
QUEEN OF THE LILIN
ONE ARABIAN NIGHT
SILVER PEACOCK
THE KING'S PEACOCK
TRIANGLE BY ARRANGEMENT
SCARLET RENDEZVOUS
TREASURE FROM KURDISTAN
CHASTE GODDESS
DOUBLE CATSPAW
PIT OF MADNESS
PALE HANDS
LIVE BAIT
THE CROOKED SQUARE

Sorry, I don't know why the thread title was truncated when I posted the thread.

Except in Weird Tales the stories were published in: All Detective Magazine, Spicy Adventure Stories, Clues Magazine, Spicy Detective Stories, Spicy Mystery Stories, The Magic Carpet Stories, Alibi, Strange Detective Stories.
Some of the stories are about an adventurer named Glenn Farrell. I needed this for checking some things for an article. Price based some stories on the idiotic myth about the supposed devilworshippers from Kurdistan, like a lot of of his WT-collegues did. Seems they all used the same source as the "exotic" details read all the same, from Howard to Quinn. |
