New York Pulp: City on Fire

Noir, Book 6

By: Tim Simpson

Narrated by: Tori Storie

Welcome to the pulps!

An introduction by the author.

First let me say what a fan I am of the pulp magazines of old. Now, granted I am not old enough to have read these wonderful stories when they first hit newsstands. However, it has often been said I am in the wrong era. I should have been born near the turn of the century. With that said, I would like to explain what it is you are about to hear.

This book does fall into the same universe as my other series of books I call the Noir series. In those books you can hear about the gritty world of detectives, reporters, and gangsters. Well, that world exists here as well except here you have men and women who are willing to work outside of the law on both sides to get a job done. Whereas the other books focus on the aforementioned detectives, private and otherwise, here the focus is more on the ones that hide who they are. They will often wear disguises to conceal their identities to avoid arrest or retaliation from the underworld.

Growing up, I loved the pulp heroes such as the Shadow, Miss Fury, Black Bat, and so many others. This book is written in that tradition. You will find characters that you may have met in the Noir series and that is because it is one universe, just a different city and focus. So with that said, sit back and relax and let the pulp world take you away from your reality and place you in mine.–Tim Simpson, March 01, 2022
