Read The Third Cry to Legba, and Other Invocations (The Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman #1) By Manly Wade Wellman Full Books Online in HD Quality

Volume 1 of The Selected Stories of Manly Wade Wellman, Third Cry to Legba and Other Invocations collects Wellman's John Thunstone and Lee Cobbett stories. These stories (written between 1943 and 1979) combine the mystical and horrific with traditional southern folk tales and legends. At the same time, these stories reveal a post World War 2 modernism that make them much more then pulp romanticism. The paranoia and cynicism of modern weird icons such as the X-Files may well have had their genesis in the pulp musings of Manly Wade Wellman. Indeed the intensely driven, idealistic occult investigator John Thunstone could be a pulp/noir stand in for Fox Mulder.

With 24 illustrations. Edited by John Pelan, illustrated by Kenneth Waters.
