H. G. Wells Unpublished Combo Issues

The fall 2016 issue of the Strand includes an unpublished short story by H.G. Wells titled “The Haunted Ceiling.” This hidden gem is part supernatural, part psychological, and is rich in atmosphere. Furthermore, our 50th issue will also feature an exclusive interview with the talented and prolific Walter Mosley. The celebrated author of the Easy Rawlins series speaks about noir legends, the craft of writing, and his inspirations. This issue also features fiction by Craig Johnson, John Floyd, Jeffrey Pearce, and Larry Millet.

Edgar-nominated author John M. Floyd has a story that serves as a warning on accepting stolen goods with “Jackpot Mode.” Additionally, we are proud to publish “Land of the Blind” by Craig Johnson, where Sheriff Longmire confronts a madman. Our pastiche by Larry Millet has Sherlock Holmes and Watson take a journey across the pond to tackle a peculiar hound in “The Adventure of the American Drifter.” Jeffrey Pearce, in his first short story in The Strand, tells a tale of greed, ghosts, and the macabre with “All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight.” Moreover, we also present an unpublished H.G. Wells story.

In our exclusive interview, Walter Mosley speaks in depth about how he created one of the most iconic sleuths of this generation, his writing routine, and the authors who inspired him to become a novelist.

Our book review section reviews mysteries by Noah Hawley, Rena Olsen, Gaku Yakumaru, Marcia Clark, Carl Hiaasen, Alex Berenson, Megan Abbott, and many more! Last but not least, we have our Young Adult Reading guide, which ranks the top 15 books for young adults and kids, chosen by our editorial staff.

Notably, the fall issue also marks a great milestone: our 50th issue. We have had such fun bringing the Strand to thousands of our readers every quarter, and we look forward to providing more entertainment and reading pleasure to our loyal readers.
