Quote:
Been a fan of Doc Savage since I was 14 or so. Funnily enough, my first pulp novel was Kenneth Robeson's (Ron Goulart had replaced Lester Dent by this time I think,) The Avenger: The Purple Zombie.


Paul Ernst actually wrote the first 24 Avenger novels under the pen name of Kenneth Robeson (possibly with the help of another author named Emile Tepperman). Ron Goulart took over with book 25 "The Man from Atlantis" and ended his run with book 36 "Demon Island".

Book 27, "The Purple Zombie" was indeed one of Goulart's novels.
