Description

H. P. Lovecraft’s dark vision of Massachusetts as a seat of cosmic weirdness has fascinated readers for more than a century. Witch-troubled Arkham. Drowned Dunwich. Mystic Kingsport. Fish-fouled Innsmouth. And others even more obscure….

This collection of ten new and previously-printed stories explores that dark and embattled region––for here gather the forces of Cthulhu and his otherworldly allies. Here, too, range the sworn enemies of those Elder Gods—the operatives of the Cryptic Events Evaluation Section of the National Reconnaissance Office. Can they stave off Ultimate Night—or must mankind grovel before the Great Old Ones who covet the Earth?
