2Lion's Brood

By Duffield Osborne

"Centuries come and go; but the plot of the drama is unchanged, and the same characters play the same parts. Only the actors cast for them are new." For this timeless tale, we are taken back to the Roman forum. With the backdrop of the Punic Wars, we follow the fortunes of Sergius, a young man going off to serve and who impresses his general; and Marcia, the young woman he leaves behind, whom he loves, but who refuses to commit to any attachment for him before he leaves.

Welcome back to another exciting issue of the exciting and chilling magazine The Thrill Book, noted precursor to Weird Tales Magazine! In this, issue #6, we have two crackling serials: the first part of the terrifying haunted room story "The Crawling Hands" and the dashing conclusion of the sea-faring adventure yarn "The Devil's Own". Also included is the modern occult magic tale "Magic in Manhattan", the mysterious ghost story "From Over the Border", the creepy crawly "When Basset Forgot", the fantastical "The Rim of the World" and much more!
