Editor on the 'Gaslight Sherlock Holmes' series, 'Professor Challenger: New Worlds, Lost Places' and 'Beyond Rue Morgue' anthologies. Mostly, I just like to read... but will rage about Canadian politics as a federal Liberal and AB NDP supporter in Calgary.

Arthur Conan Doyle eventually sold the story, and rights, to Ward Lock & Co. for the meagre sum of £25. Today only 11 *complete* copies are known to exist and it is considered to be 'the most expensive magazine in the World' with a copy selling at auction in 2007 for $156,000 USD.
