"He declared a one-man war against the supernatural! Thrill to the adventures of John Thunstone, straight from the pages of the world's greatest horror magazine—the legendary Weird Tales. You've never met a ghost hunter or demon slayer like John Thunstone. Defying the naysayers' vision of a pale basement-dwelling hobbyist, Thunstone is tall, broad-shouldered, athletic, and handsome. He likes to spend his evenings in nightclubs, holding court and charming women. But does he lack focus? No! Thunstone is also a serious scholar, deeply studied in the occult and dark arts, and he carries a blade of silver inscribed with the motto sic pereant omnes inimici tui (thus perish all your enemies), forged by Saint Dunstan, patron saint of silversmiths, and one of the few men the Devil himself feared. Thunstone's battles with the darkest forces haunting our world are the greatest creation of Edgar, World Fantasy, and British Fantasy Award winner Manly Wade Wellman (also the only dark fantasy author nominated for the Pulitzer Prize). You'll accompany our imposing hero on four of his most chilling adventures in the first volume of this series of his original, classic ""The Third Cry to Legba"", ""The Golden Goblins"", ""Hoofs"", and ""Letters of Cold Fire"".
