Of the three 1949 Doc Savage novels, The Green Master comes closest to the original spirit of the Doc Savage of the mid-Thirties. Up From Earth’s Center, though, must rank as one of the strangest Docs ever written where (as the cover of the pulp shows) he actually wrestles with the devil. I enjoyed all three of these stories and was happy to have learned that the Doc Savage pulp era ended with a bang and not a whimper. Interestingly, I was born in November of 1950, a year after Doc’s demise.
