Recensioni della critica
“They're timeless.”—B&N Explorations
“Hubbard was a first-rate pulp writer…He could go up against any of these giants [Hammett, Max Brand, J.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Louis L’Amour]. And while most pulpsters worked in multiple genres, I don’t know of any who covered the full spectrum of pulp categories more ambitiously than Hubbard.”—Locus Magazine
“Unabashedly entertaining books.”—Kevin J. Anderson
