146 THE FANTASY FAN, June, 1934 TASY FAN was fine! 'The Ancient Voice' by Eando Binder was the best story that I have read in a good many moons! And I don't mean maybe, either. Mr. Binder held me simply spellbound from start to finish!. Let's have many more like this superb tale!" —Fred John Walsen "The strength and beauty of Robert E. Howard's 'Gods of the North' in your March issue has influenced me to mark it for frequent re-reading. No other of his stories has appealed to me quite so strongly. I hope that you can induce him to write more stories in the same vein." —Chester D. Cuthbert "Just received May FANTASY FAN and was agreeably surprised to see the 'cover.' That's the way of getting started on one. 'Weird Whisperings' by those master newshawks was very fine. The high spots in the issue were Barlow's Annals and 'Prose Pastels' by Smith. I never tire reading either of these two authors. I enjoy all the poetry you print and believe that you ought to have at least two pages of it." —F. Lee Baldwin "I am enclosing a dollar this time for a full year's subscription. I find the little mag most interesting. Another thing I like about the book is that the Readers' Sayso includes letters from authors—which proves that they, too, read stories." —Gertrude Hemken "I liked practically everything in the April issue of THE FANTASY FAN. The letters in the lengthened 'Our Readers Say' were interesting. 'Side Glances' was allright; you know I liked the feature story very much, and I was interested in reading the views presented on teh topic I suggested, and the ads were good. So there!" --Forrest J. Acierman "I enjoy articles by Bob Tucker, Hoy Ping Pong, and Eando Binder's recent weird narration was fine." —J. Harvey Haggard "I devour your magazine like a dog does a bone, but I usually read it first. The articles that appear beat anything ever written by Shakespeare and makes the works of Poe, Wells, and Verne look amateurish. Lovecraft, Smith, and Howard are the greatest writers of all time, in any branch of literature. (continued on page 160) BOOKS OF THE WEIRD by J. Harvey Haggard "Drums of Dambala" by H. Bedford-Jones is a crackerjack of a weird novel in case any of the rest of the fans haven't read it. As related by that master raconteur, we have zombies, ju-ju dances, and lots of thrilling action on that dark island of ancient magic, Haiti. "The Story of Supersttition," a non-fiction book dealing with the origin of such quaint modern customs as throwing rice and having corner-stones, is another absorbing book. After reading it, you'll wonder if man has wholly escaped from his belief in the supernatural after all. "Magic Island," by Seabrook, is another non-fiction book that will thrill you as much as the most imaginative tale. The author relates his experiences in Haiti, in which he goes native with the bushmen and witnesses the sacred dance never before beheld by white men. views presented on the topic I suggested, and the ads were good. So there!" -- Forrest J. Ackerman "I enjoy articles by Bob Tucker, Hoy Ping Pong, and Eando Binder's recent weird narration was fine." -- J.
