☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology featuring multiple stories: "The Thing in the Pit" depicts a creature of darkness from an ancient Indian curse dedicated to destruction, which attacks a village of giants and threatens the tribe of Akani until giants battle the entity. A Blue Bolt story shows the masked hero tracking a Nazi agent through city streets who has stolen a weapon and is being pursued. "Rocket Ship X" follows characters Bowes, Pearson, and Anderson as they contend with a rapidly growing ivy plant aboard their vessel that threatens to choke them, ultimately leading to chaos in the city below when the plant descends and terrorizes the populace.
Professor Grover Barret and his assistant Rex Carson face a supernatural terror when Barret's niece Winnie arrives at their isolated research site in Virginia—only to be mysteriously abducted in the dead of night. Racing to a hidden chamber beneath an excavation pit, the two men confront an ancient, malevolent entity that has been stalking them, clutching Winnie in its grasp and taunting them for walking into its trap. What horrors await them in the darkness below, and can they overcome this creature of legend?
Blue Bolt finds himself caught between a native tribal uprising in the Moroccan desert and a shadowy Nazi plot when he teams up with Heinie, a tough-talking German-American operative. As the two face capture, betrayal, and a mysterious masked leader orchestrating chaos from the shadows, they must uncover the truth behind the conflict before it's too late. With danger closing in from all sides, Blue Bolt and his unlikely ally race to expose the conspiracy and turn the tables on those pulling the strings.
