The Book of Yig: Revelations of the Serpent: A Cthulhu Mythos Anthology
Yig, known as the Serpent God, is older than humanity, and Yig’s reptilian Children once ruled the Earth. Now they are stirring in their caves, walking the Earth in forms not quite human, slowly and patiently preparing their plans. Those who stumble on their secrets are in deadly danger…but only they can prevent the return of our darkest fears.
Join us for a collection of novellas from some modern masters of Neo-Lovecraftian fiction: Peter Rawlik (Reanimator, The Weird Company), Matthew Davenport (Andrew Doran, The Trials of Obed Marsh), David Hambling (Harry Stubbs, The Dulwich Horror), and Mark Howard Jones (Cthulhu Cymraeg) telling stories of Yig’s deadly machinations.
David Hambling
David Hambling is an author and science journalist writing for New Scientist magazine, WIRED and The Guardian, as well as the more eclectic Fortean Times, ‘the journal of unexplained phenomena’. In 2001 he ignored all warnings and passed over the river to live in Norwood, South London. Initially unimpressed by its suburban facade, he was gradually intoxicated by the area’s miasma of exotic history. As an admirer of an earlier science writer, H. P. Lovecraft, he set about weaving a series of weird science fiction stories around his locale. His wife and cat are tolerant of this eccentricity.
