This 20th-and yes, final-tome of Tales of the Shadowmen is, as befits a 20 year-old series, a very special volume, collecting all new stories by many of our past and present collaborators, as well as personal reminiscences by illustrious authors about the role or influence that French fiction might have played in their creative lives.

During its existence, Tales of the Shadowmen is proud to have introduced unknown classics of French popular literature to the English-speaking public, including the nefarious Black Coats, Doc Ardan, Doctor Omega, Felifax, Harry Dickson, Madame Palmyre, the Nyctalope, S穩 Dubnotal, the Vampire City, and many more, in addition to keeping legendary pulp heroes such as Ars鈩e Lupin, Captain Nemo, Fantas, Judex, the Phantom of the Opera, Robur and Rouletabille, in the limelight.

In this volume, writers from Australia, Canada, England, France, Ukraine and the United States pay homage to all those great detectives and master villains who enchanted our adolescence with a smorgasbord of tasty tales that span all of Earth's history-and beyond.
