Sinopsis

Our 96th issue introduces some new contributors to the magazine—Smita Harish Jain (with an original mystery, thanks to Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken) and Naomi Hirahara (with a riveting reprint mystery, courtesy of Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman). Also on the mystery front, we have a pair of British classics: a Sexton Blake detective story by Hal Meredith and a novel by William Le Queux.
 
When it comes to fantasy and science fiction, we’ve achieved an appealing balance. Adrian Cole and Henry S. Whitehead deliver two distinctly different nautically-themed stories. Also featured is Robert E. Howard’s eerie tale, “The Dream Snake.” (The Whitehead and Howard pieces originated from Weird Tales, and Cole’s work could easily have found a home within its pages.) Complementing the mix are science fiction stories by Arthur Leo Zagat and Russ Winterbotham, both prolific during the Golden Age.
 
Here’s the complete lineup:

“An Honorable Choice,” by Smita Harish Jain [Michael Bracken Presents short story]“The Case of the Taken Trophy,” by Hal Charles [Solve-It-Yourself Mystery]“Off the 405,” by Naomi Hirahara [Barb Goffman Presents short story]“The Empty Tin,” by Hal Meredith [short story, Sexton Blake series]The Gamblers, by William Le Queux [novel]

    In The Fall of the House of Usher, Edgar Allan Poe masterfully weaves a gothic tale of psychological horror and supernatural dread. The story follows an unnamed narrator who visits the decaying mansion of his childhood friend, Roderick Usher. As the story unfolds, the narrator uncovers the deep mental and physical decay of the Usher family, mirrored by the eerie and crumbling house itself. As tensions rise, the line between reality and madness blurs, leading to a terrifying and tragic conclusion. 
    Narrated by Rob Sogomonian, this audiobook captures the atmospheric gloom, suspense, and underlying horror of Poe's classic tale, bringing the haunted world of Usher to life in a chilling performance. 
    Perfect for fans of gothic literature, horror, and classic tales of the macabre, The Fall of the House of Usher remains one of Poe's most iconic and unsettling works.

    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz, and includes a fully immersive cinematic music score. 
    "The Cats of Ulthar" is a short story written by American fantasy author H. P. Lovecraft in June 1920. In the tale, an unnamed narrator relates the story of how a law forbidding the killing of cats came to be in a town called Ulthar. As the narrative goes, the city is home to an old couple who enjoy capturing and killing the townspeople's cats. When a caravan of wanderers passes through the city, the kitten of an orphan (Menes) traveling with the band disappears. Upon hearing of the couple's violent acts towards cats, Menes invokes a prayer before leaving town that causes the local felines to swarm the cat-killers' house and devour them. Upon witnessing the result, the local politicians pass a law forbidding the killing of cats. 
    Influenced by Lord Dunsany, the tale was a personal favorite of Lovecraft's and has remained popular since his death. Considered one of the best short stories of Lovecraft's early period, aspects of "The Cats of Ulthar" would be referenced again in the author's works The Other Gods and The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. It was first published in the literary journal Tryout in November 1920 and now resides in the public domain.
