For a book that's supposed to be all about the Cthulhu mythos and Lovecraft's works, I ain't seeing a whole lotta tentacled monsters, starry blackness and Ancient Ones lurking in the pages.  So far half the book is generic horror stories that could be slapped into anything. 

I'm feeling kinda let down by it all at this point.

Eight Seconds: sorta an offbeat tale set in the Australian outback, but hey- at least a monster finally made an appearance.

Body to Body to Body: Gotta admit; didn't see that one coming.  Ties directly into the previous story, fleshing out two of the main characters and continuing their tale.  Again, a little bit confusing, but entertaining. 

Still no gibbering monsters, tho.

The Thing on the Cheerleading Squad.  More of a character study than anything; light on the Cthulhu stuff and predictable.  Starting to lose some enthusiam for this book.  Where's all the gibbering monsters and unspeakable horrors?

That last story- Hairwork- was tepid and kinda hard to follow. Almost not sure why it was even included- more like voodoo that Lovecraftian.

Still having fun, tho.

Up next: The Thing on the Cheerleading Squad.

I know, right?  :)
