Manor Books

[citation needed] Manor's library was built on assets purchased from Macfadden Publications after the latter opted to exit the paperback business, and expanded with original titles.

Prolific author Robin Moore (The Green Berets, The French Connection) wrote several books for Manor and was arguably its most famous contributor.

Under his real name, Rosenberger penned blaxploitation-style books starring the African-American anti-hero Louis Luther King The Murder Master.

[11] The company made overture towards female readers with its King Size Gothic line dedicated to paranormal romance, a popular subject at the time.

The name was both an indication of the books' somewhat generous content in comparison to most paperback original novels, and a ripoff of the Queen Size Gothic collection by rival Popular Library.
