I'm really intrigued by CAPTURED BY PIRATES, but I see it's out of print and commanding ridiculously high prices by secondhand sellers! You’re welcome, John.

I really enjoyed putting it together. It took me a lot of research to dig up some of those stories. I think you might also enjoy two of my other books -- "Vampires, Wine & Roses" and "Captured by Pirates". The former is a similar collection of stories by famous authors, but this time on vampires. The latter is a collection of firsthand accounts written by people who were captured by pirates between 1500 and 1850 and lived to tell the tales. These often brutal true stories are as good as any horror fiction. I'm really glad you enjoyed my book and that it got you back into reading. By the way, it looks like "Into the Mummy's Tomb" is about to be reprinted by a different publisher. You may see it as a hardcover value edition with a different cover by the end of the year.

But it moves along at a quick clip and provides the necessary grisly scenarios. At just under 200 pages, it’s actually a novella, so Leisure gives you more for your money by also including THE NECROMANCER, which is almost as long though not quite as much fun.
