This was an ARC from NetGalley.This anthology is an excellent homage to the monsters of Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Solid stories by some of the best authors in the business, past and present, each with a striking illustration make this a must for any fan of the Mythos.

This collection knocked around since the '90s with several publishers, starting with Arkham House, giving up on it. Cemetery Dance brought it out ultimately. It had been so long in the tennis court that Lansdale couldn't find his original introduction and had to write a new one! The collection i...
