Black Cat Weekly #59

Alas, we have no selection from Cynthia Ward this time, but hopefully she will be back in short order. I picked up one of my favorite dark fantasies by another Acquiring Editor to fill the hole: “Peeling It Off,” by Darrell Schweitzer. Plus an uncanny tale by A.R. Morlan that would have been at home in Weird Tales, then a Victorian-era occult novel by Marie Corelli round things out.
For fans of traditional mysteries, we have a pair of great private detective novels: About Face, by Frank Kane, and a vintage Nick Carter novel from 1903. On the science fiction side, we have contributions by Murray Leinster and a novel by George O. Smith.
Overall, this is one of our most eclectic issues, but there is bound to be more than a few tales to suit everyone’s taste.
Here’s the complete lineup:
Mysteries / Suspense / Adventure:
“Ghost Writers in the Sky,” by Steve Liskow [Michael Bracken Presents short story]
“Point, Set, Match,” Hal Charles [Solve-It-Yourself Mystery]
“Deal Breaker,” by Justin Gustainis [Barb Goffman Presents short story]
Toying with Fate, by Nicholas Carter
About Face, by Frank Kane [novel]
Science Fiction & Fantasy:
“Ghost Writers in the Sky,” by Steve Liskow [Michael Bracken Presents short story]
“Deal Breaker,” by Justin Gustainis [Barb Goffman Presents short story]

The Hellflower, by George O. Smith [novel]
The Sorrows of Satan, by Marie Corelli [novel]
