The gripping adventure novel Brood of the Witch-Queen was composed by Sax Rohmer. It entails the investigation conducted by the protagonist Robert Cairn into the peculiar Si-Fan cult. Cairn's journey from London to Egypt is featured in the story, as he confronts a variety of dangerous and unusual challenges. The novel boasts many action scenes, including a thrilling chase through the streets of Cairo and an intense battle with a giant serpent. Rohmer captivates readers with his quick writing style and captivating narrative, immersing them into the dark world of the Si-Fan and their black magic. The depiction of the infamous antagonist Fu-Manchu, who leads the Si-Fan with his cruel tactics and sly intellect, is particularly striking; such that Fu-Manchu has become a legendary figure in modern culture. Brood of the Witch-Queen offers a fresh perspective into the antagonist's backstory and drives according to Rohmer, setting him apart as an intriguing foe in the realm of literature.

The Quest of the Sacred Slipper is another rough-and-tumble tale of eastern evil clashing with western civilization by Sax Rohmer. The book has a story of a group of homicidal Muslims who are racing after a slipper that once belonged to the prophet Mohammed in this gory novel by the prolific and commercially successful Sax Rohmer (Arthur Henry Sarsfield Ward). In this narrative, journalist Cavanagh becomes entangled in a dispute about a stolen object-the Sacred Slipper-that is purported to have belonged to Mohammed and was guarded by a covert organization. At the very least, anyone who touches the object loses their offending hand; at the absolute worst, they lose their life. There is a lot of what appears to be supernatural behavior that is later revealed to be commonplace deceit, in keeping with Rohmer's usual style. It's quick to read and has an action that compels the reader to move to the next page.

Tales of Chinatown is a collection of short stories that are all, essentially, situated in London's Chinatown (Limehouse at the time they were written). Similar to Sax Rohmer's collections of Egyptian short stories, they do not all include the same cast of characters, and Fu Manchu is conspicuously absent. Chief Inspector Red Kerry (of "Dope" fame) is a major character in the first narrative two. The third story, which concerns Detective Sergeant Durham and his superior Chief Inspector Red Kerry, is told by a friend of Paul Harley (who is not there). Paul Harley is back in action in the fourth, fifth, and sixth stories. The seventh story is arguably Rohmer's most well-known and strongest work. Even though Kerry is only mentioned briefly, the eighth story is set in his home city of Limehouse. In the ninth narrative, a buddy of Paul Harley (who is once more out of town) is once more entangled in a plot involving intrigue and retribution. The last story has a femme fatale who captivates and seduces every man she encounters. Is it hypnotism, drugs, or pheromones?

Knox and Paul Harley are speaking while seated in Paul Harley's office. In addition to being a private investigator, Harvey advises the British Empire's political establishment. When Colonel Juan Menendez enters the room, the two are discussing what position Paul should adopt next. Paul thinks that his fear of being pursued by someone is just delusion. Menendez has only ever seen the shadow of the person, but he is nevertheless certain that they are watching him. Then Menendez reveals a bat wing that had been left for him. Harley is then abruptly thrust into a world of voodoo, vampires, and murder!

Meet the top-most hero-villain, a complete masterpiece of suspense, a Chinese criminal of endless wealth, mind, and mysterious powers whose goal is nothing less than to overpower the world; he is Dr. Fu-Manchu, a master of disguise who commands the criminal societies of Asia. His foil is Denis Nayland Smith, a plodding Englishman with unclear connections with Scotland Yard, and his physicist friend, Dr. Petrie. This novel is the first and best-seeming instalment in the series of Dr. Fu-Manchu mysteries, among which a few are film adaptations. The Insidious Dr. Fu-Manchu presents a cast of beautiful characters in a materialistic, climatic story with so much suspense hidden inside the story, which creates more excitement to know what is going to happen.

Sax Rohmer's thriller adventure and most beloved hero-villain character are back in the series. Fu-Manchu is a cunning, manipulative, evil genius attempting to control the world and destroy his enemy Nayland Smith and his loyal companion, Dr. Petrie. The tricky doctor gets back to Great Britain with his alliance of professional killers, the feared Si-Fan. Smith has come back to Burma and has heard that Fu Manchu is still alive and has gotten back to England to take his revenge on them. The book is a series of episodes that find Smith and Petrie attempting to find Manchu and fight his dacoits and different executions of his terror. In the era of Sherlock Homes, the author has created a character and his tales of adventure that are appreciated by many people around the globe.

The work of British writer Sax Rohmer (pseudonym of Arthur Sarsfield Ward, 1883-1959) was once immensely popular, but most of it has lapsed into oblivion-except his corpus of weird fiction. This volume features the best of his tales of horror and strangeness, culled from his numerous story collections from the 1910s and 1920s. The mystery of Egypt dominated Rohmer's imagination, and the volume Tales of Secret Egypt (1918) contains some of his best weird work, such as "The Whispering Mummy," "The Death-Ring of Sneferu," and "Lord of the Jackals," which may or may not involve the supernatural. "Tchériapin," Rohmer's finest weird tale, is authentically supernatural and even features a science-fictional undercurrent in its suggestion that a chemical formula can render any organic substance hard as diamonds. "The Curse of a Thousand Kisses" fuses horror and poignancy in its suggestion that a hideous old woman is the centuries-old Scheherazade, the victim of a curse. Sax Rohmer can take his place with H. Rider Haggard, Rudyard Kipling, and other writers who, while chiefly focusing on tales of adventure, was frequently inclined to incorporate terror and weirdness into his exciting narratives. His stories are as readable today as when they were first written.
