Clearly, that is not the case with A Secret Society. It's almost as if Mundy's editors at Adventure magazine told him to shake things up and get some blood on the page. And so he does. There is even a gun battle within the interior of the Great Pyramid itself. Meanwhile, a worldwide society of criminals must be faced down and derailed from their plot to enter the United States and embrace the American financial system within their web. Before there was James Bond, there was Jimgrim and Ramsden.
There is not nearly as much thought in this story as in the earlier novels. Maybe no thought whatsoever. But perhaps Mundy's readership in Adventure were getting antsy, and he needed to toss them a bone. ( )
