Forever associated with his creation of evil genius Dr Fu Manchu, Sax Rohmer (1883-1959) was the king of pulp exotica. At the height of his fame he was one of the most popular writers on the planet. Lord of Strange Deaths is the first attempt to do justice to Rohmer. Contributors focus on subjects including Egyptology, 1890s decadence, Edwardian super-villains and Chinese dragon ladies, and the Arabian Nights. The result is a testimony to the enduring fascination and relevance of Rohmer's absurd, sinister and immensely atmospheric world.
