More adventures of the man who is part The Saint and part Doc Savage, with a pinch of Superman! "Another great read! I thoroughly enjoyed this one, and I am looking forward to the next book in this series! On to the next then!!" Goodreads 5-star review Meet the first non-costumed superhero, a man who would rather wear jacket and tie than a flashy costume, who would rather dine with a fascinating woman than fight bad guys (but watch out bad guys if he gets you in his sights). Charles Lee Jackson II's The Emperor is back to face the deadliest of perils in this newest installment of The Emperor saga. Journeying to four cities legendary for their mysteries and dangers, this suave superhero finds death lurking around every corner. Visiting the Bay Area, The Emperor joins the lethal, red-headed adventuress known as Shanghai Lil, to investigate a series of puzzling acts of piracy in San Francisco. A recent widow, an encounter on Lombard Street, sea shanties, and Alcatraz lead to a ruthless band of criminals and a battle against impossible odds. Invited to the Mardi Gras parade as honored guests, The Emperor and Shanghai Lil become marked for death by the mysterious Tsodiac when they become curious about the inexplicable theft of seemingly worthless souvenir doubloons.. Doom in a mysterious underground city awaits The Emperor when he joins Lil in Seattle to investigate serial killings targeting the homeless. The stakes are high when The Emperor and Alison Carlson (the costumed heroine Shooting Star) travel to a military instillation outside Santa Fe to safeguard a top secret cargo ... and meet the Wizard, a man with uncanny powers, who plans to steal it right out from under The Emperor's nose, and the noses of the whole U.S. military! Charles Lee Jackson II's brainchild, The Emperorverse, with its dozens of costumed and super heroes and heroines (and villains and villainesses), first appeared in a series of alternative comic books in the late 1960s. Then, in the '90s Mr. Jackson began to retell those adventures in a series of pulp novels written for a number of small press 'zines. Now, for the first time ever, the Amazing Adventures of The Emperor and its companion series, The Emperor's Secret Files, featuring his other spellbinding characters - like Fireball, Solara, the Titan, Shooting Star, Nemesis, and more - are being published in book form.
