Black Cat Weekly #113

(2023)
(Book 113 in the Black Cat Weekly series)

 
 
This issue we are headlining the appearance of Norman Spinrad’s masterful short novel, Riding the Torch—one of my favorites of his, and a work that surely deserved more attention than it’s received. (But in a career that has produced such classics as Bug Jack Baron, The Iron Dream, and The Void Captain’s Tale, perhaps it’s understandable that one of Spinrad’s short novels hasn’t received the attention it deserved.)

We also have a trio of original mysteries, four Golden Age science fiction tales, and a solve-it-yourself puzzler…more than enough to thrill even the most jaded reader! So, read on—you’re in for a treat.

Here’s the complete lineup:

Mysteries / Suspense / Adventure:

  • “The Stolen Half-life of Alicia Desilva,” by Avram Lavinsky [Michael Bracken Presents short story]

    “The Case of the Snitched Snacks,” by Hal Charles [Solve-It-Yourself Mystery]

    “An Arm and a Leg,” by M. E. Proctor [Barb Goffman Presents short story]

    “The Devils You Know,” by Skye Alexander [short story]

    “Somebody Cares,” by Talmage Powell [short story]

    • Riding the Torch, by Norman Spinrad [short novel]
