Otis Adelbert Kline Books in Order

Otis Adelbert Kline is a renowned pulp era writer and literary agent. As a member of the original Weird Tales editorial staff, he made a lasting impression on the magazine's early issues. His notable works, including the novel "Planet of Peril" (1929), are set in the fantastical realms of Venus and Mars, drawing inspiration from the John Carter of Mars novels. This led to a literary rivalry with Edgar Rice Burroughs, prompting a series of interplanetary and jungle adventures. Kline's contributions to the world of fantasy fiction are undeniable. In the mid-1930s, he shifted his focus to a successful career as a literary agent, representing notable authors such as Robert E. Howard, creator of Conan the Barbarian, from 1933 until Howard's passing in 1936, and continuing to serve the Howard estate thereafter.
