Hank Janson was a hugely successful and prolific English imitator of the 50s US pulp novels. I've never read any, mainly because I suspect the quality might pale in comparison with his US counterparts (Keene, Miller, White, Brewer, Williams, John D, et al). On the other hand, I could be wrong. I had a look in the rara-avis archives, but he's not prompted much discussion. Is that because he's not worth discussing? Any informed opinions?
