Three strikes you're dead! Well, at the least enjoyably terrified, by this third collection in the series of the bizarre and the uncanny by noted author of weird tales Jeffery Scott Sims. This volume contains eighteen stories of mystery and horror, science fiction and fantasy, in settings ranging from the distant past of forgotten prehistory to the technological future. Monsters, magic, and evil doings abound! Secret societies, underground worlds, hideous gods, menaces from beyond time and space! Also this marks the return of Sims' most popular character, Professor Anton Vorchek, investigator of weird mysteries, who stars (often accompanied by his lovely assistant Theresa Delaney) in five tales of his own. Contents: Langley's Painting; Office Consultation; Night Flight; The Man in the Globe;The Chamber of Horrors; Alone with the Night Crew; Kardowan; The Mad One; In the Time Vault;The Gold Sphere;The Guardian at the Gate; The House at the End of the World; A Simple Solution; The South Face of Medicine Man Mountain; The Big Sedona Bash;Yardreela; The Man Who Sought Blug; and the short novel All Expenses Paid.

This anthology caters strictly to lovers of high-concept weird fiction and pulp adventure. It does not suit readers seeking nuanced character development, subtle atmospheric dread, or literary prestige. The tone is explicitly lurid and energetic, prioritizing shock value and imaginative set-pieces over coherence or depth. Those expecting a unified narrative arc or sophisticated prose will likely find the collection disjointed and overly simplistic. However, for enthusiasts of Lovecraftian monsters and ancient evils presented with a sense of playful exuberance, it delivers exactly what is promised: a diverse array of bizarre scenarios without pretension.
