The Case Book of Harry Stubbs: Four Cthulhu Mythos Adventures:
"Another stellar bow by David Hambling with this addition to the Harry Stubbs series. All of these were previously part of other collections themed around Al-Azif, Yig, Yog-Sothoth, and the final tale from a collection called Eldritch Prisoners that c"

It is easy to laugh at this kind of adolescent sub-Bond spy fantasy. Can the unarmed hero take on any number of armed assailants? Will he successfully seduce the sexy enemy agent? Can he stroll through a casino and win thousands? Need you even ask? Th ...more |

| Tales from an Eldritch Wasteland is a cornucopia of C.T. Phipps’ neo-Lovecraftian fiction—an almost indecent number of stories, rampaging cheerfully across eras, geographies, and subgenres. Many of them appeared earlier in the popular Books of Cthulh ...more | |

| Not as greatest, but a good read. A novel take on the baddies. Some horribly cliché plot twists in there, but if it works, it works, and if anyone can make it work, Stephen King can. And some nice Covid touches | |

“There is a story about a traveller chased by a tiger to the edge of an abyss. The man took hold of a vine and started to climb down when he saw an angry dragon at the bottom of the abyss, and when he looked up, the tiger was lashing its tail above. As he hung on, a mouse started to gnaw away at the vine he was clinging to. The man was ready for death when he noticed a wild strawberry growing next to him, so he plucked it. It was the sweetest he had ever tasted.”
