Please be patient. This is a rather large table.
The intent of this cross referenced bibliography is to allow any English title used by Sax Rohmer or his editors to be checked quickly. In addition to the numerous books and short stories Sax Rohmer had published, nearly all of his early novels were first published as serials or short stories and only later published or re-written as books. Many of his stories remain uncollected and have never appeared in book form. Often, however, what appears to be a new "story" is actually a serial publication of a familiar book.
"The Zayat Kiss," for example, is simply the first serial installment of The Insidious Fu Manchu as published in Collier's magazine. "Cinderella's Slipper," however, has apparently been published only once -- in This Week on 27 February 1938.
In addition to the book titles, this list includes the distinct short stories -- those that remained distinct stories when published in collections such as Tales of Chinatown, those published in other collections such as The Spy in the Shadows, those such as "Count D'Ambro's Window" that remain "uncollected" and can only be found in the original magazines and newspapers, those such as "The Ebony Casket" for which no publication data are available and finally, those such as "The Cold Man" that were never published.
Rohmer often rewrote stories, sometimes with minor changes, sometimes with major changes; where known these changes are noted. Magazine publishers also renamed many of his stories and these alternate titles are also included and cross referenced.
The list also includes titles for the serial installments of the novels, stageplays, lyrics, monologues written for performers he knew, and finally, the nonfiction articles he wrote for newspapers and magazines. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.
Original titles later changed by various editors are listed separately.

The Story-Teller November, 1915 "The story 'The Haunting of Low Fennel' underwent a drastic sea-change to become Nightmare House.
