Does anyone know if there is any compilation of the S. Quinn stories from Weird
Tales -- other than the Jules de Grandin tales? I understand that Quinn was a
prolific contributor to Weird Tales, but I am not aware of any publications
available in reprint or paperback form (except for the JDG books, as noted
above). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. wl...@aol.com

wlmcs,

I have two paperbacks from Popular Library which are collections of Jules De
Grandin stories from Seabury Quinn reprinted back in 1976, although originally
printed in Weird Tales. They are:

The Adventures of Jules de Grandin
The Casebook of Jules de Grandin

According to the back cover, there were four more books in the series:

The Devil's Bride
The Skeleton Closet of Jules de Grandin
The Hellfire Files of Jules de Grandin
The Horror Chambers of Jules de Grandin

If you come across extra copies of these let me know, I'm interested in them as
well.

Later,

Jack,

I have the Hellfire Files and Skeleton Closet volumes.
There is also an extensive writeup about De Grandin and his cases in volume 2
of Yesterday's Faces by Robert Sampson.
The individual volume title is Strange Days.

There are a couple of non-Jules collections, if memory serves. One is titled
Alien Flesh, I believe. And there was also a hardback Jules collection called
The Phantom Fighter.

Here is an index of Jules de Grandin stories I did several years ago.
Hope this is of some use to people. Michael R. Brown
