In the thrilling first installment in this genre-busting series, Spectros journeys to Mexican mining country to confront the conjurer who kidnapped his bride

A narrow carriage rumbles through the treacherous mountains of Sonora. Inside, surrounded by countless books and pieces of scientific equipment, rides Dr. Spectros—the most brilliant magician of the Old West. For years, he has pursued the fiendish sorcerer Blackschuster, who long ago stole the only woman the doctor ever loved. Spectros has now chased his nemesis to Mexico, where he discovers a town just as rotten as the conjurer who hides there.

Blackschuster has come in search of the silver he requires to keep the bride of Spectros trapped in eternal sleep. With the help of his associates, the gunslinger Ray Featherskill, the knife expert Inkada, and the hulking bruiser Montak, Spectros corners his enemy, but defeating him will take a magic more powerful than any the world has ever seen.

Showdown at Guyamas

The origins of a timeless blood feud are revealed in the second installment of the uncanny and enthralling Spectros series 

When a ship sinks off the coast of India, a lone survivor washes ashore—a mysterious young man from the American West. Taking refuge among the local nobility, the man falls in love with the daughter of the Yahif. But on the eve of her wedding, Kirstina is kidnapped by the sinister and supernatural Blackschuster. To save his beloved, the American immerses himself in the dark arts and is reborn as a mighty wizard: Dr. Spectros.

In the last car of a train bound for the Old West, two railroad employees discover Kirstina inside a glass coffin, alive but trapped in eternal sleep. Blackschuster kills the porters and escapes with his prisoner as Spectros follows in close pursuit. With the help of a handsome gunslinger, a mute giant, and a knife expert, the doctor will rescue his bride from the clutches of evil or die trying. Luckily, he has a powerful weapon on his side: the ability to transform himself into Kid Soledad, master gunfighter.

The third installment in the Spectros series: In pursuit of his beloved, the master magician makes landfall on the Oregon coast

From Natchez to Denver, Mexico to Montana, Dr. Spectros has chased his nemesis, Blackschuster, across the length and breadth of North America. He nearly caught up with him in California, but the evil wizard slipped out of Spectros’s grasp. The trail grows warm again in the Oregon fishing village of Bear Harbor, where Blackschuster has come in search of the silver he needs to perform his sorcery.

With the help of a handsome gunslinger, a mute giant, and a skilled knife fighter, Spectros finally has a chance to destroy his enemy and rescue his beloved. But there are dark forces at work on the coast of Oregon, and Blackschuster has harnessed the powers of a beast whose very name strikes fear in the hearts of men.

Hunt the Beast Down

A spooky and sinister army confronts Dr. Spectros in the swamplands of Mississippi 

The ship full of enslaved Africans arrived in Natchez just before the end of the Civil War. Freed by the Union army, the Telingas found themselves in a strange land whose language they did not speak and whose people they feared. The tribe fled into the bayou to make a new life with their old black magic—one so powerful it has brought the evil conjurer Blackschuster all the way from the West to the Deep South.

On orders from his employer, Dr. Spectros, the gunslinger Ray Featherskill rides into Natchez. Seeking to avenge the kidnapping of his beloved Kirstina, Spectros has vowed to bring Blackschuster’s reign of terror to an end. Ray has just settled into his hotel room when bullets fly through the window, missing him by inches—the sinister magician is sending his enemies a message. When Spectros arrives, he and Ray venture deep into Telingas territory, where Blackschuster has joined forces with an army of the undead.

The stirring final installment in a series that combines the thrills of the Old West with supernatural chills

In the cold desert night, gunslinger Ray Featherskill rides alone. On the horizon, he sees two men sitting at a roaring campfire. He approaches carefully, but his caution is unnecessary. The men are dead, their throats cut from ear to ear. It is the work of Blackschuster, the sinister magician who kidnapped Dr. Spectros’s beloved bride and imprisoned her in a glass coffin. Ray rides not just for Spectros, but to avenge every innocent person Blackschuster has killed.

On the shadowy edge of the dead men’s camp, Ray finds a survivor—a spirited young woman who is happy to join the chase for the magician who murdered her father. Soon they are joined by Spectros, and an epic blood feud approaches its electrifying conclusion.
