"L. Ron Hubbard was a master storyteller and a major literary figure in the 'Golden Age' of pulp magazine publishing.... A master author in all of the diverse and varied action-adventure genres, these three newly reprinted titles will be especially welcome by those already familiar with Hubbard's work -- and serve as an admirable and highly recommended introduction for those new to the 'Golden Age' of pulp magazine fiction!" -The Midwest Book Review, "L. Ron Hubbard was a master storyteller and a major literary figure in the 'Golden Age' of pulp magazine publishing.... A master author in all of the diverse and varied action-adventure genres, these three newly reprinted titles will be especially welcome by those already familiar with Hubbard's work -- and serve as an admirable and highly recommended introduction for those new to the 'Golden Age' of pulp magazine fiction!" --The Midwest Book Review, "An American mining engineer searching for gold in the Gobi Desert is captured by bandits and delivered into the hands of Machiavellian monks in this title originally published in Thrilling Adventures (Sept. 1936). The performances by R.F. Daley, Kelly Ward, Owen Sun, and Jim Meskimen are all well executed, but the protagonist's dripping, snarky tone and penchant for racial stereotypes won't endear him to listeners. Only for die-hard adventure and pulp fiction fans." -Raya Kuziuk, Library Journal, "Hubbard wrote adventure, westerns, thrillers, and crime-espionage as well as sf--and they reveal both the range and quality of the author's work.... Even a sampling of Galaxy's catalog makes it clear that pulp-fiction devotees need to put Hubbard's works on their must-read lists." --Booklist, "He wrote Westerns, swashbucklers, air adventure, mysteries, espionage thrillers, science fiction, fantasy, tales of the Orient, sea tales, and even Yukon tales in the tradition of Jack London." --Antique Trader, "Hubbard wrote adventure, westerns, thrillers, and crime-espionage as well as sf-and they reveal both the range and quality of the author's work….

Synopsis
American mining engineer Captain Humbert Reynolds has got a bad case of gold fever. His search has brought him halfway around the world, to the Gobi desert, where he lands in a Golden Hell?a mountain of horrors run by an unspeakably evil gang. Now he may find that instead of snatching the ultimate prize he will have to pay the ultimate price. Join the race and feel the heat of gold fever as Golden Hell leads you into a mountain of unimaginable danger and unexpected twists and turns., A blind obsession. A driving ambition. A relentless, unrestrained, single-minded pursuit of a shiny metal. These are the symptoms of a condition known as gold fever, and American mining engineer Captain Humbert Reynolds has got it bad. Possible side effects include: temporary insanity, a propensity for violence and death. The search for gold has taken Reynolds from the ruins of the Yucatan to the mountains of Ecuador to the wilderness of northern Canada. Now, his search for a yellow brick bonanza has brought him halfway around the world, to the Gobi desert. But the lure of the precious metal is about to lead Reynolds into a Golden Hell, as he plunges into an inferno--a mountain of horrors run by an unspeakably evil gang. And if he doesn't find a way out, a path to redemption, he may find that instead of snatching the ultimate prize he will have to pay the ultimate price. Also includes the adventure, "Pearl Pirate," a story of betrayal and deceit in which an American captain loses his ship to a money-lender, and the only way to get it back is to outfight and outfox a ruthless pirate and bring home a fortune in black pearls. Join the race and feel the heat of gold fever as Golden Hell leads you into a mountain of unimaginable danger and unexpected twists and turns. "Swashbuckling adventure ... thoroughly satisfying." --Booklist, A blind obsession. A driving ambition. A relentless, unrestrained, single-minded pursuit of a shiny metal. These are the symptoms of a condition known as gold fever, and, like Bogart in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, American mining engineer Captain Humbert Reynolds has got it bad. Possible side effects include: temporary insanity, a propensity for violence, and death. The search for gold has taken Reynolds from the ruins of the Yucatan to the mountains of Ecuador to the wilderness of northern Canada. Now, his search for a yellow brick bonanza has brought him halfway around the world, to the Gobi desert. But the lure of the precious metal is about to lead Reynolds into a Golden Hell, as he plunges into an inferno?a mountain of horrors run by an unspeakably evil gang. And if he doesn?t find a way out, a path to redemption, he may find that instead of snatching the ultimate prize he will have to pay the ultimate price. In 1927 Hubbard served aboard a schooner sailing across the South Pacific bound for the coast of China. Making his way inland, he ventured deep into forbidden Buddhist lamaseries, shopped at the Thieves Market, made camp with Mongolian bandits, and witnessed the trade in stolen Chinese treasures. Drawing on those experiences as well as his time as a gold prospector, Hubbard infuses Golden Hell with extraordinary historical authenticity. Also includes the adventure ?Pearl Pirate,? a story of betrayal and deceit in which an American captain loses his ship to a money-lender, and the only way to get it back is to outfight and outfox a ruthless pirate and bring home a fortune in black pearls.
