The Spider #91 Audiobook

Slaves of the Burning Blade

by Norvell W. Page writing as Grant Stockbridge

Read by Nick Santa Maria

Of only one factor was Richard Wentworth certain: Sperryville’s super terrorist was The Knife — most dreaded and bizarre murderer Europe ever sent us! But was The Knife posing as Sergeant Maurice, sworn enemy of Wentworth and the Spider? Or as Madame Latonga, mystic who wielded such uncanny power? Was it Clem Zamas, leader of the Knights of Liberty, who attempted justice in outlaw fashion? These were the vital puzzles the Spider must solve in one short night — though sorely wounded, hunted... and hated!

While the Spider borrowed his black slouch hat and cloak from the Shadow, the character was significantly different. The Spider stories are all about action, intensity, and pacing. Wentworth is strongly emotional, plumbing the thrills of victory as readily, and as deeply, as the depths of despair during his escapades. His long-suffering fiancée, Nita van Sloan, is a worthy character in her own right. As additional exotic spice, Wentworth maintains a Sikh manservant/warrior companion, Ram Singh, as well as chauffeur Ronald Jackson, the sergeant from his old army days. Rounding out the cast of characters is Commissioner of Police Stanley Kirkpatrick, Wentworth’s staunch friend and the Spider’s greatest adversary; Kirkpatrick himself lives in a state of constant angst for fear that duty will one day force him to send his friend to the electric chair as punishment for the Spider’s crimes.

Nick Santa Maria reads Slaves of the Burning Blade with the crackling intensity you have come to expect of his superb talent. Originally published in The Spider magazine, April, 1941.
