Granton City Press mastermind Calvin Daniels has banded together a bunch of talented writers and artists to create a selection of modern day pulp novels. And what a rich and varied selection of books they are.
Unit 13 Issue One by Calvin Daniels and Tyrell Tinnin, for example, is a World War One set hybrid of sci-fi, war story, gothic horror and golden age superheroics.
The Unit in question is a secret task force operating in WWI Germany. The leader is the hardboiled Sgt. Crake who leads a team that includes a cyborg, a troll and a masked markswoman known only as The Starling.
This is a vivid, fast moving and well written read with a cast of colourful characters I’d like to meet again. And what a great film it would make!
Ghost Wind and The Black Wolf are just a couple more of Granton City Press’ other titles and all look to be choc full of pulpy goodness.

Doh! Of course Unit 13 takes place in WW1 and Germany wan’t Nazi then was it? Sorry to the young turks. I wrote it when I was drinking Polish moonshine -bimber!
Sorted! That Polish fuel’ll time travel your arse …
I will be reading one of these soon and I’m looking forward to it.
Paul you always keep us up to date. Thanks mate.
