Conjure Wife / Our Lady of Darkness
This book is an omnibus edition of Conjure Wife and Our Lady of Darkness.
Conjure Wife
Witchcraft. Norman Saylor considered it
nothing but superstition, until he learned that his own wife was a
practicing sorceress. Even still, he refuses to accept the truth that
every woman knows... that in the secret occult warfare that governs our
lives, witchcraft is a matter of life and death.
Our Lady of Darkness
Middle-aged San Francisco horror writer Franz Westen is rediscovering ordinary life following a long alcoholic binge. The one day, peering at his apartment window from a top a nearby hill, he sees a pale, brown thing lean out
his window... and wave.
This encounter sends Westen on a quest
through ancient books and modern streets, for the dark forces and
paramental entities that thrive amidst the towering skyscrapers... and,
meanwhile, the entities are also looking for him.
