Quitters never prosper.

Don't go away mad, milum...but if you must, let me tell you first that TEd already solved #13, and you included it in your survey of both the solved and unsolved. A throwback to your Atlantean roots? Try and try again...see ya tomorrow...

Great helps is "telegraphs" (doesn't need the "s" at all, actually)
no more stars is "astronomers"
real fun is "funeral"

(those last two could be called "antigrams," as the re-arrangement means the opposite of the presentation)

I'm stuck on #20!

I get "Phantom's Ire"

and also "Hone Armpits"

...and I know neither is right, but maybe those scrambles will send somebody in the right direction. The clue is: "Spare Him Not."

Thanks for the clue, Juan! Instant recognition!
