I thought the ending was perfectly logical; in fact this was one of my successes. I thought Brown was still very well known in both the mystery and science fiction fields. Haffner Press has commenced a reprint project of Brown's pulp detective fiction, and so far two large (700 pages each) volumes have been published.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
