The Devil Rides Out

This hardback (with dustjacket) 864 page compendium of four of Dennis Wheatley's novels was published in 1977 jointly by William Heinemann and Secker & Warbury. Contents: Dennis Wheatley's Black Magic classics are world famous. So brilliant is the writing, so thorough has been the research, that the impact of these novels is overwhelming. In 'The Devil Rides Out', the Duke de Richleau rescues Simon Aron and a beatiful woman from the heart of a blasphemous, orgeastic sabbat in the West Country. From then on they are pursued by the terrifying powers of evil exercised by the Satanists for vengeance, lust and gain. 'The Haunting of Toby Jugg' is the story of a young, crippled airman's hallucinations as devil worshippers try to overpower him, the ever-mounting tension and terrifying climax make this a superlative novel. Gateway to Hell finds the Duke on the hunt for Rex Van Ryn through hair raising Satanist strongholds in Argentina. To the Devil - A Daughter introduces new characters and the sunny, flower-filled gardens of the Riviera where it seems impossible that evil practises of the worst kind could ever penetrate
