Python Isle

REVIEW Python Isle is the first of seven all-new Doc adventures Will Murray wrote for Bantam between 1991 and 1993, and itвЂTMs a classic. If I didnвЂTMt know better, IвЂTMd swear this was a lost work by Lester Dent. Actually, it was based on a Dent outline, but every word of prose rings true. Will nails the characters, the relationships, the dialogue, and the humor better than any of DentвЂTMs contemporaries - a list that includes Laurence Donovan, Harold A. Davis, William Bogart, Alan Hathaway and Ryerson Johnson. This one features a lost civilization, a mysterious babe, a zeppelin, a gang of ruthless thugs - and, as you may have guessed, a mess of giant pythons. It was a kick in the butt to go adventuring with Doc and the gang again.
