I had no idea anyone was playing around in Farmer's universe! I had PJF's "Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life" when I was just a tween, then got "Tarzan Alive" and later on read "A Feast Unknown " (I've never recovered), as well as "Lord of the Trees/ The Mad Goblin". I absolutely love the way PJF took so many existing characters and built a universe around them. I'll have to check out these Rick Lai books. Thanks for posting that Rick!
Kim Newman's "Anno-Dracula" series is also tied to the Wold-Newton Universe, but would be considered an alternate history of it, as some of the WN mainstays either die prematurely or become vampires.

Have a few King's signed at this end.  He lives in my hometown of Bangor and is a great guy.

These are both amazing reads!
Listen to them. Children of the Night. What music they make!

True story: in my younger days, I used to get mistaken for Stephen King a lot! This was back in the mid-'80s, when King got really fat. Only thing is, I'm 5'9" and King's like 6'4"! But, there were two incidents where (obviously not very knowledgable) King fans insisted I sign their copies of "Danse Macabre" and "The Stand." So, I did-- with my name, not his, of course!
