Arthur J. Burks 2 hr 7 min read

Home at last past the Statue of Liberty, Lee Bentley hopes the horrible African nightmare is over, but the mad genius Barter, master of minds, is not finished with him yet.

Arthur J. Burks's 1932 story, a sequel to 'Manape the Mighty,' is a lurid horror and psi-powers thriller. Vivid, feverish golden-age pulp. Read it for a full-blooded weird-menace yarn where a mad scientist's ghastly experiments in transplanting minds reach out of the jungle to threaten a man who thought himself safely home.
