Out of the Aeons by H.P. Lovecraft
Rate this book
Clear rating
Out of the Aeons is one of those Lovecraft stories that feels like a museum exhibit that should never have been opened. It begins mild and scholarly, almost harmless, then slowly tilts into something ancient, hungry, and colder than time. Lovecraft a ...more

Tony Travis and 2 other people liked Anisha Inkspill's status update
Anisha Inkspill
Anisha Inkspill is 60% done with The Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Last couple of chapters was a bit of chore as I was trying to keep up with the war strategies and who’s trying to outwit who. The interesting characters and details are still there, and I could probably just skim through this but I’m thinking I’ll miss something as there are so many characters where the point of view keeps switching as civil strife continues.

Clarke’s strength lies in his restraint. He does not tell us what Rama means or who built it. He lets us wander through its corridors, its vast cities of light and silence, and draw our own conclusions. Every discovery raises new questions, every ans ...more

Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury is a meditation on fear, youth, and the relentless passage of time. It carries that distinct Bradbury rhythm, yet unsettling, like a dream that turns strange the longer you linger in it. Beneath its car ...more

The Hunters from Beyond by Clark Ashton Smith is a striking tale of art, obsession, and unseen worlds pressing too close to our own. It captures Smith’s signature style; it is lush, poetic, and filled with an unease that feels both intimate and ancie ...more
