in Its Walls, is a classic. He also wrote a series of novels
featuring the character Johnny Dixon. Among the titles in that
series are The Curse of the Blue Figurine; The Mummy, the
Will, and the Crypt; and The Spell of the Sorcerer’s
Skull. His stand-alone novel The Face in the Frost is
also regarded as a fantasy classic, and among his earlier works
