Pulp Fiction s "The Falcon Killer"
Originally published in 1939 this story takes place in the Orient where "The Falcon Killer, (Tzun
Kai)," is really Bill Gaylord, China s war ace fighter pilot.
Born to American parents but being raised in Peking, Gaylord finds himself in a foster home
when both his parents lose their life during a violent Boxer uprising.
He suffers a second major
blow when his foster family is slaughtered during wartime.
Such tragedy at a tender age was
enough to harden his soul and give him nerves of steel.
This gives him the edge he needs to
take on the enemy Japanese war planes, of which he intends to blast as many as he can out of
the skies.
He soon finds himself embroiled in events that send him in search of a Japanese spy whose
treachery could spell disaster, a disaster so huge that if he does not find and defeat this man, an
entire ancient Chinese kingdom could be lost to the land of the rising sun.
This is one of the many pulp fiction stories L.
