Did you know Frank S Pepper wrote for Mills & Boon?

Frank S Pepper is remembered as the comics writer who gave us Roy of the Rovers, Captain Condor, Rockfist Rogan and many more besides (his Wikipedia entry is here).

What he's not remembered as is a Mills & Boon writer, but here is is...90 pages of story in the 'Venture books' line of horror / adventure titles. Published in 1977 and easy to acquire if you are happy to spend £15-£20. Harder to acquire if, like me, you think that's way too much.

Those 'Venture book' titles in full...
  • Tiger Trap by Patrick McDonald
  • Hound of Frankenstein by Peter Tremayne
  • Adam by Mike Baker
  • The blood of Dracula by Jack Hamilton Teed
  • Rig 59 by Matt Chisholm
  • Big deep by Frank S Pepper

I haven't actually read it - I'll let you know if it's any good
