Book Overview
"First described by visionary author H. P. Lovecraft, the Cthulhu mythos encompass a pantheon of truly existential cosmic horror: Eldritch, uncaring, alien god-things, beyond mankind's deepest imaginings, drawing ever nearer, insatiably hungry, until one day, when the stars are right.... As that dread day, hinted at within the moldering pages of the fabled Necronomicon, draws nigh, tales of the Great Old Ones--Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, Hastur, Azathoth, Nyarlathotep, and the weird cults that worship them--have cross-pollinated, drawing authors and other dreamers to imagine the strange dark aeons ahead, when the dead-but-dreaming gods return. Now, intrepid anthologist Ross E. Lockhart has delved deep into the Cthulhu canon, selecting from myriad mind-wracking tomes twenty-seven sanity-shattering stories of cosmic terror. Featuring fiction by many of today's masters of the menacing, macabre, and monstrous, including Laird Barron, Caitl?n R. Kiernan, and Thomas Ligotti, The Book of Cthulhu goes where no collection of Cthulhu mythos tales has gone before: to the very edge of madness... and beyond! Do you dare open The Book of Cthulhu? Do you dare heed the call?"--

The Book of Cthulhu
Published by C. L. Rossman , 3 years ago
This Great Old One keeps getting more and more popular. This anthology of many well-known writers and other gifted Lovecraftian admirers has a very satisfying thickness and richness of story. It is paperbound and the first anthology edited by Ross E. Lockhart--and I'd say he's got a good one here. My favorites among the stories include "Shoggoths in Bloom" by Elizabeth Beat, "The Oram County Whoosit by Steve Duffy, "The Fairgrounds Horror" by Brian Lumley, and "The Tuggng" by Ramsey Campbell--among many others. Rejoice all! Cthulhu Lives!
