Pulver in Yellow

Joe Pulver, if you haven't already heard of him (and why the hell haven't you??), fuses beat, noir, pulp and high weird with startling skill. He's also the go to person when it comes to Robert W. Chambers' King in Yellow stories. Joe has written god knows how many King in Yellow stories over the years --well I suppose he knows how many too, as does Mike Davis of the Lovecraft Ezine as Mike is currently preparing to put out volume one in a the collected Yellow stories of Joe Pulver! Excited? You could say so!

I find it most fitting that Joe's work is being collected this year as 2015 is the 150th anniversary of the birth of Robert W. Chambers as well as the 120th anniversary of the first publication of his collection The King in Yellow. I get the feeling this year is definitely going to have a maddening yellow hue to it. :D

Keep an eye on the Lovecraft Ezine for news on when the book is going to be released. I'm sure I'll probably be posting somewhat excitedly about it here too. :)
