Coven 13, Vol. 1, No. 1
Coven 13, Volume 1, Number 1, September [Year unknown] This inaugural horror-supernatural magazine, edited by Arthur H. Landis, presents entirely new fiction for adult readers seeking sophisticated macabre stories. The issue features a serialized novel, *Let There Be Magick* by James R. Keaveny, written in the style of the defunct *Unknown Worlds*. Alan Caillou contributes the feature novelette *Odile*, illustrated by William Stout—a story set in rural France (Petit Gruet, 1936) depicting a woman, Denise Croix, preparing for the arrival of her lover by bus, set against the atmosphere of an isolated village near ancient ruins. Jack G. Levine provides *In Markham Town*. Additional short stories include Richard Flanagan's *The Postman Always*, Lenore Betker's *Of Brides and Brimstone*, Joseph Harris's *Potlatch*, Jean W. Cirrito's *I'll Come to You by Moonlight*, and G. Kissinger's *A Spell of Desperation*. Regular departments include Editor's Cauldron, Readers Section, and Poetry Corner, with contributions from Walden Muns.
