Robert Bloch Kiss the Whip Pbk published January 2007 by Creation Books at £9.95 ISBN: 1840681314

The Marquis de Sade lives! Four acclaimed purveyors of fantastic fiction collide in a pulp inferno of black magic, torture and sexual depravity. Robert Bloch's The Skull Of The Marquis de Sade was first published in Weird Tales, and later filmed by Amicus Productions as "The Skull". Jean - Paul Denard's Jacqueline, Daughter of De Sade dates from 1968 and is a classic example of the underground porno press of that era. Richard Matheson's De Sade (novelised by Henry Clement) comes from the screenplay for the wild 1969 film of the same name. Jeremy Reed's When The Whip Comes Down depicts the Divine Marquis as an immortal, doomed to repeat his debauches through the centuries. All four works are dark pulp tributes to the Marquis de Sade, whose literary legacy and dread reputation continue to inspire both writers and film - makers to this day.
