This set in the occult and adventure genre presents an uncompromising sequence of thrillers that chronicle black magic and wartime skulduggery alongside historical naval and espionage drama, listing Black August; The Satanist; They Found Atlantis; The Devil Rides Out; and The Launching of Roger Brook. Each novel presents a distinct register of Wheatley’s storytelling: The Satanist and The Devil Rides Out illustrate calculated confrontations with Satanic rites and occult antagonists, Black August and They Found Atlantis uncover hidden cults and archaeological menace, and The Launching of Roger Brook details polished historical adventure and the origins of a swashbuckling hero. The set argues for Wheatley’s mastery of atmospheric menace, moral confrontation, and globe‑spanning plotting while maintaining brisk pacing and meticulous period detail.
