Coming this summer, the 15th title in the Paperbacks from Hell reprint series published by Valancourt Books! Progeny of the Adder is a 1965 horror-thriller by Leslie H. Whitten (1928 - 2017), a Florida-born journalist who also wrote several genre novels. I first read this title over 10 years ago and reviewed it here, and mentioned it in my recommended reading afterward for PfH. I'm looking forward to rereading it so I can write the introduction. Head over to Valancourt's page for ordering info. Psyched that we're able to continue this line of books!
I was fortunate enough some years ago to obtain a copy of the original paperback edition of 'Progeny'. It's a pretty good read, with a 'Kolchak: The Night Stalker' and 'Count Yorga' vibe to it. Glad to see Valancourt issuing a new version.
