This audiobook collects Wellman’s John Thunstone and Lee Corbet stories, written between 1943 and 1979.

These stories also reveal a post-World War II modernism that make them much more then pulp romanticism. The paranoia and cynicism of modern weird icons, such as The X-files, may well have had their genesis in the pulp musings of Manly Wade Wellman.
