The Children of Cthulhu: Chilling New Tales Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft
Edited by John Pelan.
Descend to the depths
of primal horror with this chilling collection of original stories drawn from H. P. Lovecraft’s shocking, terrifying, and eerily prescient Cthulhu Mythos. In twenty-one dark visions, a host of outstanding contemporary
writers tap into our innermost fears, with tales set in a misbegotten
new world that could have been spawned only by the master of the macabre himself, H. P. Lovecraft. Inside you’ll find:
DETAILS by China Miéville: A curious boy discovers that within the splinters of cracked wood or the tangle of tree branches, the devil is in the
details.
VISITATION by James Robert Smith: When
Edgar Allan Poe arrives, a callow man finally gets what he always
wanted — and what he may eternally despise.
MEET ME ON THE OTHER SIDE by Yvonne Navarro: A couple in love with terror travels beyond their wildest dreams — and into their nightmares.
A FATAL EXCEPTION HAS OCCURRED AT... by Alan Dean Foster: Internet terrorism extends far beyond transmitting threats of evil.
AND SEVENTEEN MORE HARROWING TALES
