About the author

Arthur Leo Zagat (1896–1949) was a prolific writer of the early 20th century, well known for his works in the science fiction and horror genres. Born in New York City, Zagat graduated from City College in 1914, practicing law for a few years before deciding to turn to writing as his full-time career. His narratives were frequently featured in pulp magazines of the era, such as 'Argosy', 'Astounding Stories', and 'Weird Tales'. Zagat's storytelling was emblematic of the imaginative leaps and speculative wonders that characterized pulp literature, and he was adept at capturing the mix of terror and fascination that his unusual subject matter required. 'Thirst of the Living Dead', one of his notable works, illustrates his ability to blend horror with the fantastic, painting a vivid landscape that terrifies as it engages the reader. Although not as widely recognized today as some of his contemporaries, Zagat's works are indicative of the adventurous spirit of pulp fiction writers who laid the groundwork for what would become staple themes in modern science fiction and fantasy literature. Contributing over 500 stories to the genre, his prolific output and narrative style cement his place in early American speculative fiction.
