The Cthulhu Mythos is one of the 20th century's most singularly recognizable literary creations. Initially created by H. P. Lovecraft and a group of his amorphous contemporaries (the so-called "Lovecraft Circle"), The Cthulhu Mythos story cycle has taken on a convoluted, cyclopean life of its own. Some of the most prodigious writers of the 20th century, and some of the most astounding writers of the 21st century have planted their seeds in this fertile soil. The Book of Cthulhu harvests the weirdest and most corpulent crop of these modern mythos tales. From weird fiction masters to enigmatic rising stars, The Book of Cthulhu demonstrates how mythos fiction has been a major cultural meme throughout the 20th century, and how this type of story is still salient, and terribly powerful today.

Reseñas editoriales

Fans of H. P. Lovecraft's famously malevolent tentacle monster, Cthulu, will love this collection of 27 stories inspired by the influential fantasy creature. Weird, modern, and alien, these tales are among the best examples of the Cthulu Mythos story cycle. Meticulously compiled by Ross E. Lockhart, stories in this volume include contributions from Kage Baker, Caitlin R. Kiernan, Ramsey Campbell, and many more. Somber and menacing performances from Teresa DeBerry and screen and voice actor Fleet Cooper add to the air of mystery and foreboding.

The last story, "The men of Porlock" was my favorite! The performance by the reader was flawless. Must hear. Spooky!

Fantastic performance!

There are some good stories in here and the audio is great ... however ... there are TOO MANY stories that are just pure crap. I gave them all a good college try but some of these might as well have just been smut. On the plus side the bad ones made the good ones really stand out but only about a third of them were worth reading.

Almost ...

A great anthology for tales in the Lovecraft vein and style. I listened to both this book and it’s sister volume in two marathons. I am blind and Audible is a godsend.

Only a couple stories really stood out. I ended up skipping one entirely because the narrator was using a horrid, borderline inappropriate Middle Eastern accent. I skipped two others because they bored me. I fully recognize that HP Lovecraft is from another time, was casually racist and used racial slurs. One author took significant advantage of that and used "n----r" about 15 times, without any benefit to the story.

Hit and Miss

Incredible anthology of short (and somewhat longer) stories that mostly are great listens, some really make your skin crawl

Lots of Monster Fun
