The Chinatown Death Cloud Peril by Paul Malmont
This is a gripping story with infamous villains, nefarious plots, and hair-breadth escapes. The story casts the rivalry between two legendary writers into its own amazing saga,and takes place from the palaces and battlefields of warlord-plagues China to the seedy waterfronts of Providence, Rhode Island, from frozen seas and cursed islands to the tunnels and secret temples of New York's Chinatown. Great adventure and read. The book has been read and is in like new condition. The book is a first edition. The picture is of the actual book, not a stock photo.

On Jul-24-08 at 18:11:26 PDT, seller added the following information:
It's 1937, and America is turning to pulp fiction for relief from the Depression. Meet Walter Gibson, the mind behind The Shadow, and his rival for the nation's newsstands, Lester Dent, creator of Doc Savage. The mysterious murder of Gibson's friend H. P. Lovecraft is about to bring these two writers face to face with a peril sprung from the pulps. This debut novel is a valentine to an old-fashioned genre as well as a modern, meta-literary examination of the classic hero pulp. From the palaces and battlefields of warlord-plagued China to frozen seas and cursed islands to the labyrinthine alleys and tunnels of lower Manhattan, Dent and Gibson, joined by the young pulp writer L. Ron Hubbard and a host of colorful characters, take part in a heroic journey greater than any story they imagined as they race to stop a madman.--From publisher description.
