Two Envelopes And A Phone is 9% done

The first story is 'Don't Give Your Right Name' by Norbert Davis; I'm part-way through it. His private dick is Max Latin. Never read Davis before. The authors in here that I have read are Raoul Whitfield (loved Green Ice), Frank Gruber (loved The Whispering Master), and Erle Stanley Gardner. I know who Lester Dent is, but I've never read a Doc Savage novel; I will at some point.

Two stories left - by Lester Dent. and Erle Stanley Gardner. Overall, it has been a very entertaining line-up of stories.

Going from a Raoul Whitfield story to a Frank Gruber story - now this is kind of a chunk of paradise for me; Green Ice by Whitfield and The Whispering Master by Gruber we’re both great novels, and I’ll take short fiction from them any day of the week.

Three entertaining stories, so far - a bit dated, so there are some dubious details that don't fit so good in 2023...but I knew that was going to happen in 1920s to 40s hardboiled. The mystery plots have been swell!

Two excellent stories thus far. I can only hope the whole book keeps the high standard…and I love discovering new authors to follow up on again later.

It is what it is. It can't be anything else.
