Tag: Seabury Quinn

The name of Seabury Quinn is inextricably linked with the ‚unique magazine’, WEIRD TALES, to which he contributed some one hundred and fifty-nine stories, making him that publication’s most prolific contributor. His most conspicuous success was the series of tales featuring the occult detective Jules de Grandin, which always left readers clamouring for more. Indeed, de Grandin almost became to Quinn what Sherlock Holmes became to Arthur Conan Doyle: so overwhelmingly popular a creation that he threatened to overshadow completely his author’s other successes.
