Calm, Cool, Collected!
From The Pages of Occult Detective Quarterly
In 1976 Harlem, He's the man you call when your hair stands up…
He's JOHN CONQUER, P.I.
From Hoodoo doctors and Voodoo Queens,
The cat they call Conquer's down on the scene.
With a dime on his shin and a pocket of tricks,
A gun in his coat and an eye for the chicks.
Uptown and Downton, Harlem to Brooklyn,
Wherever the brothers find trouble is brewin,'
If you're swept with a broom, or your tracks have been crossed,
If your mojo is failin' and all hope is lost,
Call the dude on St. Marks with the shelf fulla books,
'Cause ain't no haint or spirit, or evil-eye looks,
Conjured by devils, JAMF's, or The Man,
Can stop the black magic Big John's got on hand!
Collects Conquer Comes Calling, Conquer Gets Crowned, Conquer Comes Correct and four previously unpublished stories - Keep Cool, Conquer, Conquer Cracks His Whip, Conquer And The Queen of Crown Heights, and Who The Hell Is John Conquer? Includes a sneak peak at the full-length novel Conquer: Fear Of A Black Cat, coming in 2021.
