Secret Agent "X" #2 eBook 
The Spectral Strangler - March 1934
 
Total Pulp Experience. These exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading as an eBook and features every story, every editorial, and every column of the original pulp magazine.
 
From 1934 to 1939 America thrilled to the adventures of Secret Agent X — the "man of a thousand faces" — as he battled futuristic weapons and mad scientists. The true identity of Secret Agent X was never revealed. He used his mastery of disguise to work undercover for the U.S. government. With his aide, newspaper reporter Betty Dale, and his secretive government handler K-9, he battled weird and fantastical threats to America for forty-one amazing issues. Secret Agent X returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.

4 of 5 Love these great pulp stories! December 30, 2018
Reviewer: Michael Klein from Tampa, FL United States  
In terms of overall quality regarding these e-book publications, for the low cost, they can't be beat! Now and then, you'll spot a typo here and there, but so seldom as to affect your reading enjoyment (I've seen many a crappy ebook at this price level, so they've pretty much got it together here).

While I rarely cover them in my reviews, in addition to getting a short novel length story about the titular character's exploits, the books also contain (usually) a mystery novella and a few short stories, which range from decent to excellent. There's also the rather quaint "Secret Council Meeting", which features letters from contemporary readers of the time, a run down on the featured story and a preview of the next edition. Sometimes, the upcoming issue is not available through Radio Archives, but I'm hopeful these titles will be available in the future.
