Review Quotes:
An anthology of Lovecraft inspired tales, all teeth, tentacles, blood and horror, I loved it!
The base for all the stories is Doggerland, submerged by rising sea levels in 6500BCE, this land connected Europe to Britain in ancient times. But what if the tsunami that drowned it was not natural but some abomination, a force of ancient darkness.
The stories are so good, so rich in imagery, violent primitive humanity in all its gory glory.
The Cthulhu mythos lives on in these tales and I loved them.
The stories in this book introduced me to an amazing new world of primitive violence and cosmic horror. The authors did an excellent job of world building and crafting fast paced Lovecraftian terror all with a pulp like sword and sorcery theme. In keeping with decades of tradition the mythos has continued to grow and this fun anthology has added a land of new lore while remaining true to the Old Ones.
