Reception.
Critical reception has been positive. "The Journal of Popular Culture" gave an overall favorable review for "Talbot Mundy, Philosopher of Adventure", writing "I would assume the book's audience to be somewhat limited but justifiably enthusiastic: relevant academics and their libraries; fans of genre or series fiction; those interested in theosophy or Eastern literature; and bibliophiles." "Extrapolation" also reviewed the work, stating that they thought "the strongest part of the biography when Taves is best, perhaps a result of his work as a media archivist, is the section that treats the Jack Armstrong radio scripts and the last of the "multiple lives" led by Mundy in the years just before Pearl Harbor."
