Coy Hall hits a rare bull's eye. Immersive period noir that is crisp, fresh, and propulsive. True to the times with light touches of a modern sensibility, A Séance for Wicked King Death is a bracing read.
-M.E. Proctor, author of Family and Other Ailments
Coy Hall is a master of creating thrilling historical fiction novels, and A Séance for Wicked King Death is no exception. With a unique premise and a cast of characters full of moxie and humorous, intelligent dialogue, Hall delivers a pulse-pounding noir novel reminiscent of Willeford or Goodis. His latest protagonist, Royce Pembrook, is a refreshing change from the hardboiled, cliche-driven characters of the past, and it's pure joy to follow him into the shadowy, enigmatic world of midnight spook shows. A highly enjoyable novel-Hall is a dream come true for pulp aficionados!
-C.W. Blackwell, author of Hard Mountain Clay
Like unearthing an unpublished Hammett book.
