Bad Books for Bad People, Episode 93: The Phantom Detective - The Vampire Murders and Tomoe Gozen
This month, Jack and Kate go into their stash of vintage paperbacks and engage in a little show-and-tell session. Kate brings The Phantom Detective: The Vampire Murders by Robert Wallace, a 1965 reprint of a pulp hero mystery from 1940, and Jack’s choice is Tomoe Gozen by Jessica Amanda Salmonson, a psychedelic 1981 trip through a fantasy version of Japan.
Who is the vampire of Vampire Mountain? At what point must a master of disguise admit he isn’t? Is it ever ok to wield a foreign sword? How many double crosses must be double crossed before a cohost’s brain actually breaks during recording? All these questions and more will be explored in this episode of Bad Books for Bad People.
