PUBLISHER'S NOTES
August
This month's featured story is our second KId Vee tale: Hotel of Death, by Gary Phillips.
Gary is an award-winning author of adult mysteries and a frequent contributor to new story collections that keep the legacy of pulp genre fiction alive. In Kid Vee, Gary has created a street-smart, youthful superhero for the metropolis of the left coast.
————————————————————————
After being given powers from the Founder's Stone by the retired Victory Angel, Andronicus Edwards has assumed his place as L.A.'s one and only superhero—Kid Vee.
The Angel is missing, and Edwards still needs to get his superhero act together—he has no costume, no inner sanctum, no Kid Vee trademark, and no T-shirts or bobbleheads. He's still an orderly at the Willow Manner nursing home where his friend Jerry Gertz lives. Jerry was the victim of Nazi genetic experiments that had turned him into the super-villain known as The Flame.
When Jerry's granddaughter is kidnapped, Kid Vee must swing into action and rescue her from The Hotel of Death.

Elaine Marie Alphin
Edgar Award-winning author of Counterfeit Son
"As soon as I discovered iPulp Fiction Library I wanted my stories to be part of it. What a terrific outlet for writers to share their stories with kids and teens who do their reading on the web." |
 |
"I write fast-paced stories that take young readers on an exciting, but believable, ride. iPulp is the perfect place for my stories" |
 |
Ben Bova
Best-selling and six time Hugo award-winning author of
the "Grand Tour" series
"When I wrote CYBERBOOKS in 1989, electronic publishing was a science fiction dream. Now iPulp is making it come true! The future is here!" |
 |
"The short story is practically a lost art, but it looks like we’ve found it at iPulp. Personally, I’m delighted, because I love writing short fiction, but the real winners here are the readers—our kids." |
 |
Orson Scott Card
Hugo Award-winning author of Ender's Game "Cheap short fiction—it's the lifeblood of literature." |
 |
Bruce Coville
IRA Children's Choice Award-winning
author of The Monster's Ring
"I love the idea of iPulp. I cut my teeth as a reader on pulp fiction, the best of which has great storytelling energy. I'm all in favor of finding new ways to bring this kind of story to young readers." |
 |
"iPulp takes fast-paced fiction to the kids, where they live, on the Internet. What a perfect idea. Home delivery. May it do for literacy what it did for pizza." |
 |
David Lubar
Award-winning
author of Hidden Talents "With the whole world wallowing in pointless, plotless fiction, iPulp greets the reader like a breath of fresh adrenaline." |
 |
Gary Phillips
Chester Himes Award-winning author of Only the Wicked
"iPulp Fiction Library is the mother of all short story fiction sites. Period." |
 |
Gregory Urbach
Author of the Waters of the Moon series "Like the good old days of Buck Rogers and Sam Spade, iPulp returns us to a time when reading was fun. It's great that writers and readers finally have a place to get together."
