Description Wiki

Sax Rohmer (pseudonym of Arthur Henry "Sarsfield" Ward; 1883 1959) was a British writer of songs sketches, plays and stories.[1] Born in Birmingham to Irish immigrant parents, the family moved to London in about 1886, where Rohmer was schooled. His formal education finished in 1901, following the death of his alcoholic mother.[2] After attempting careers in the civil service, as well as the banking, journalism and gas industries, Rohmer began writing comic songs, monologues and sketches for music hall performers, including Little Tich and George Robey.[1][3][4] Rohmers first book was Pause!, a series of sketches conceived by Robey and written by Rohmer, which was published anonymously in 1910; his second book was the ghost-written biography of Little Tich, published with Tichs real name, Harry Relph.[5]

In 1913 The Mystery of Dr. Fu-Manchu was published, a novel that introduced Dr. Fu Manchu, described by Rohmer as "the yellow peril incarnate in one man". The book brought the author popularity and wealth;[4] in total he wrote 13 Fu Manchu books during his lifetime and, although he killed the character off more than once, public pressure always demanded his return.[6] Fu Manchu is the character with which Rohmer "remains most strongly identified"[1] and was described by Rohmers biographer Will Murray as one of the literary characters that "has achieved universal acceptance and popularity which will not be forgotten", along with Sherlock Holmes, Tarzan and Dracula.[7] From 1951 onwards, Rohmer published five novels with Sumuru as the central antagonist; she was a female counterpart of Fu Manchu and her novels, too, were both popular and successful.[8]

Rohmer contracted the Asian flu in 1958 and died the following year after related complications.[8] His best-known character has outlived him through numerous film, radio and television interpretations.

amazon – "Fire-Tongue," he said. "Nicol Brinn." These are the last words of Sir Charles Abingdon, who was convinced he was being followed through the streets of London. Fortunately, the man who heard this his cryptic message was Paul Harley, an investigator Sir Charles hired to discover who was stalking him, who stole a manuscript from his study, and who called him away from his home on the night of his death. Paul Harley is no ordinary investigator. Hed done highly confidential work in the Near East and was "an unofficial field marshal of the forces arrayed against evildoers." But thats not the only characteristic that sets Harley apart — hes guided by his sixth sense. "It was an evasive, fickle thing, but was nevertheless the attribute which had made him an investigator of genius." Harley will need all of his talents — and his extra-sensory perception — to solve the riddle of the Fire-Tongue. SAX ROHMER, born Arthur Henry Sarsfield Ward in Birmingham, England, is best known as the creator of the Dr. Fu Manchu series of books, which also spawned movies, a TV series, a radio serial, and a Marvel comic. Besides his detective stories, Rohmer also wrote on occult themes in Brood of the Witch Queen, Grey Face, and The Green Eyes of Bast. He joined the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, whose other members included Aleister Crowley and William Butler Yeats.
