1.Adventures: Join Mike Resnick’s most beloved character, Lucifer Jones, as he cons his way across Africa in search of misadventure. The Lucifer Jones novels firmly established Resnick (a multiple Hugo award winning author) as a leading writer of comic science fiction. In this trilogy he manages to send up practically every pulp adventure novel ever written.
2.Exploits: "Come along with everybody’s favorite con man as he encounters the Oriental Detective with too many sons, the Other Oriental Detective, and (shudder!) the Insidious Oriental Dentist. Join Lucifer as he hunts for the Yeti, wins the Great Wall in hand-to-hand combat, becomes the ruler of a land of eternal youth, and falls hopelessly in love with the notorious Scorpion Lady. Help him tame a block-long Chinese dragon named Cuddles, and ride with him atop a learning-disabled elephant called Akbar. Become his partner as he rigs rickshaw races and goes into the tiger-hunting business. Yes, Lucifer Jones is back — and how!
3. Encounters: Lucifer Jones, everyone’s favorite con man, is in danger of running out of continents that will have him. This time he decides to try his luck in Europe. Europe’s pain is your gain. Join Lucifer as hencounters a home-made man, exercises ghosts in Italy, goes into business with the notorious Clubfoot of Notre Dame, befuddles England’s greatest consulting detective, enters a werewolf in a dog
show, and purchases the sunken continent of Atlantis. Stand beside him as he substitutes for his double, King Philbert of Sylvania. Stand just a bit father away as he confronts the Loch Ness Monster and finds
himself in the Plaza de Toros, facing El Diablo, a bull with an seriously bad attitude. Who knows? Lucifer may finally have found a land mass that’s willing to let him stay. But have a boat ready, just in case.
4. Hazards: After his Adventures in Africa, his Exploits in Asia, and his Encounters in Europe, everyone’s favorite man of the cloth is back to tell you about the Hazards he encounters in South America. They include the terrifying Island of Annoyed Souls, the discovery of the Lost Continent
of Moo (spelled correctly for a change), a battle with safari ants that even Charlton Heston wouldn’t want any part of, and a pair of Bird Girls who live in matching Chartreuse Mansions. You’ll meet some old friends such as Capturin’ Clyde Calhoun, old heartthrobs such the Scorpion Lady, old rivals such as Major Theodore Dobbins and Rupert Cornwall, an old nemesis (the remarkable Erich von Horst), a pair of naked high priestesses (or goddesses, take your choice), the sinister Dr. Mirbeau, the incredibly wealthy and incredibly undesirable Baroness Schimmelmetz, and a score of others–-including Bubbles, an anaconda with an attitude. And making his way through these hazards is the irrepressible Right Reverend Honorable Doctor Lucifer Jones. So come along–you don’t want to miss the fun!
