The original pulp covers are much better. The paperback ones lack life. The original are colorful, with life, danger, action!

(btw, now i'm reading Empir of Doom,andis great!)

I need to read some Spider.

Deka Black said...

Great decision David. My personal opinion is to begin with the first, "The Spider Strikes". Ok, is not a Norvell Page one, but is the first. And i must admit it: I'm very obsesessed with begin a series by his first entry.

If not, "Wings of the Black Death" is a great choice.

Hopefully, all the Spider stories will be available for ebooks.

Haven't heard, George, but I would certainly expect so.

Go to the Norvell Page Page, maintained by his niece. There are some free stuff listed, a couple of Spider novels among them. I had one, but downloaded the other to my Kindle app.

That's four free Spider novels, not two, from Munsey's at
