Will Murray: ‘The rumors are true’

Doc Savage expert Will Murray posted this on several of the Yahoo news groups Monday afternoon:

The rumors are true. After a seven-year negotiation – I am not kidding – I’ve acquired from Conde Nast/Advance Magazines, the right to market seven new Doc Savage novels. All seven will be based on unused and unfinished Lester Dent ideas, outlines and manuscripts.

In anticipation of this, I’ve written The Desert Demons, which reunites the entire Doc Savage cast for a far-out adventure that sprawls from 1936 Hollywood, Calif., to the alligator-invested interior of Florida.

Other Docs are in various stages of execution, with Horror In Gold fully drafted. I’m likely to complete The Infernal Buddha, which I began as my eighth Doc in 1993, next.

These will be kicked-up, over-the-top stories. Which is why I’m calling this new series, The Wild Adventures of Doc Savage.

Next stop: Finding a publisher. With a new Doc Savage film in the works, this shouldn’t be hard.

Should be a wild ride indeed.
