      A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER

      I have always enjoyed the work of Talbot Mundy (1879-1940), especially the adventures of James Grimm (better known as Jimgrim) in Arabia. This volume includes quite a few of the Jimgrim stories (and a number of related volumes)—plus a selection of other tales.

      Unfortunately, due to complex and poorly conceived copyright laws in the United States, many of Mundy’s later works are still in copyright here, while everything he wrote is in the public domain everywhere else in the world. As a result, we cannot include everything of interest in this volume, such as the Thros of Samothrace series. We will include them in a second volume, for sale only outside the U.S.

      ABOUT THE MEGAPACKS

      Over the last few years, our “Megapack” series of ebook anthologies has proved to be one of our most popular endeavors. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”

      The Megapacks (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt, Mary Wiziker Burgess, Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, Colin Azariah-Kribbs, Robert Reginald, A.E. Warren, and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!).

      A NOTE FOR KINDLE READERS

      The Kindle versions of our Megapacks employ active tables of contents for easy navigation…please look for one before writing reviews on Amazon that complain about the lack! (They are sometimes at the ends of ebooks, depending on your reader.)

      RECOMMEND A FAVORITE STORY?

      Do you know a great classic science fiction story, or have a favorite author whom you believe is perfect for the Megapack series? We’d love your suggestions! You can post them on our message board at http://movies.ning.com/forum (there is an area for Wildside Press comments).

      Note: we only consider stories that have already been professionally published. This is not a market for new works.

      TYPOS

      Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.

      If you spot a new typo, please let us know. We’ll fix it for everyone. You can email the publisher at [email protected] or use the message boards above.
