Publisher Description
Blacky Lee is a lady's man, a man's man — and a wanted man, on the run in 1930s Europe, a price put on his head by the Nazis. But Blacky's always got an angle — this time he'll impersonate The Iron Duke, crowned head of a Balkan kingdom. He could win it all — the love of a country and a beautiful woman — if he's willing to risk it all. Get in on the deception as the audio version of The Iron Duke puts you in the middle of the royal con game.

The Iron Duke Listener Reviews
-
" Another of his fun little action stories.It was originally published in 1940 in July issue of "Five-Novels Monthly" magazine. So, it's a fun quick read with that old flavor. "

" Not the best L. Ron Hubbard book I've read. Not his best work in terms of short stories either. For a good introduction to L. Ron Hubbard and his Golden Age (action adventure yarn) series, try Spy Killer or Dead Men Kill. "

About L. Ron Hubbard
L. Ron Hubbard (1911–1986), with nineteen New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, was among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of the twentieth century. As a leading light of American pulp fiction through the 1930s and 1940s, he was further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to him.
