Fanzine Follies of 2013; or, The New Issue of BLOOD ‘N’ THUNDER
I’d expected to have the Summer 2013 BnT ready in time for last month’s PulpFest, but eleventh-hour day-job distractions pushed completion of the issue to the very last minute. And then, in my haste, I made the rookie mistake of affixing to the cover an ISBN number that didn’t match the one I’d registered. Correcting […]
READ MORE >>Early Praise For THE BLOOD ‘N’ THUNDER GUIDE TO PULP FICTION
Just this last week I started receiving e-mails from buyers of the just-released Blood ‘n’ Thunder Guide to Pulp Fiction, and so far they’ve been uniformly positive — even glowing, in some cases. It’s always gratifying to get that sort of response to something you’ve worked hard on, and I’m hoping that the new Guide […]
READ MORE >>PulpFest 2013 Report: Part Two
Saturday in the dealers room seemed a bit subdued to me, especially after Friday’s whirlwind activity. But we got a flurry of newbies, including some attendees of my OSU speech and some curious folks attracted by a double-page spread on PulpFest in that week’s issue of Columbus Alive.

READ MORE >>PulpFest 2013 Report: Part One
It’s taken me four days to recover from PulpFest-induced sleep deprivation, but finally I’ve regenerated enough brain cells to make some observations about what I believe was another terrific convention. With veteran pulp collectors Walker Martin and E. P. Digges La Touche in tow, I began the drive to Columbus at approximately 6:30 a.m. last […]
READ MORE >>Now Available: BLOOD ‘N’ THUNDER GUIDE TO PULP FICTION
This blog has been dark for the last several weeks because I’ve been working furiously on a raft of Summer 2013 releases, among them the long-awaited Blood ‘n’ Thunder Guide to Pulp Fiction — which, I’m happy to report, is now available. This new Guide is a considerably revised and expanded version of the Blood […]
READ MORE >>Holiday Weekend Sale: 20% Off
Normally I’d be announcing another Summer Surprise sale, but to celebrate the holiday weekend I’m offering 20 percent off all Murania Press books, not just one. The sale is limited to Murania Press books only, not issues of Blood ‘n’ Thunder. But it gives you another opportunity to load up on both Best of Blood […]
READ MORE >>Summer Surprise Sales, Week Two
Just a reminder that our Summer Surprise Sales continue this weekend with another Murania Press book available for 20 percent off cover price between Friday evening and midnight on Sunday. Where does the Surprise come in? Well, see, we don’t tell you which book is on sale; you have to scroll through each listing to […]
READ MORE >>Beginning: Our Summer Surprise Sales!
As today marks the beginning of Summer, now’s as good a time as any to announce the first of our season-long sales events. Every weekend this Summer — from 6 p.m. Eastern on Friday through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday — a different Murania Press publication will be discounted by approximately 25 percent. The catch? We […]
READ MORE >>Collectibles Section Overhauled!
This site’s section listing collectibles for sale is long overdue for revision, so I’ve just added a couple dozen items that should be of interest to most readers of Blood ‘n’ Thunder and other Murania Press publications. The new pulps include extremely rare and high-grade early numbers of The All-Story and The Popular Magazine, seven […]
